Yes, all 50 states, in some form or another, have joint tenancy with right of survivorship in their property laws.

Most property can be owned by a joint tenancy in Mississippi. When one owner dies their interest disappears and the property immediately becomes the sole property of the surviving owner. The tenancy must be specifically created as joint tenants with the right of survivorship.

How do you know if you have right of survivorship on a property you own with a non-spouse?

A right of survivorship must be set forth in the deed by which you acquired your property. If the deed doesn't state you received the property as "joint tenants", or as "joint tenants with the right of survivorship" which is required in some jurisdictions, then you own as tenants in common and have no survivorship rights. If you review your deed and the answer isn't clear you should consult with the attorney who represented you at your closing who can draft a confirmatory deed with survivorship rights if necessary.

If divorced what happens to the survivor deed?

It does not void the deed in its entirety. A divorce voids the survivorship factor in a tenancy by the entirety because only married people can hold property as TBE. In most states the TBE would default to a tenancy in common but state laws vary and you would need to check your state laws. It does not void survivorship in a joint tenancy with the right of survivorship since unmarried people can hold property as JTWROS.It does not void the deed in its entirety.

How does rights of survivorship work for personal property?

If ownership of personal property is set up properly then the surviving co-owner will be the sole owner upon the death of the other party. Bank accounts that are set up as joint accountswill become the sole property of the survivor. Your bank will advise you regarding the requirements in your state.Ownership of a motor vehicle can be set with right of survivorship. The method varies from state to state and you must check with your state department of Motor Vehicles to determine how it is done in your state. In some states you only need to apply for the Certificate of Title in two names using "or". For example, "Marianne McCarthy or James Kennedy" with both parties signing the application. In other states the Certificate of Title must add the words, "as joint tenants with the right of survivorship".
