| I am the Trustee for my widowed Uncle''s Revocable Trust. His bank accounts are not in the Trust an |
| The uncle has no children. There are several beneficaries named in the Trust. One of the bank account beneficaries (who is not named in the Trust.) has been requesting all of the Uncle''s banking information as well as all the accounting. How much information can I disclose, before I breach the privacy of the other beneficiaries? What is my duty with regard to disclosure of information. |
| How long does the trustee have to settle a living trust |
| I am trying to get a defined answer to a living trust. What is an acceptable time frame to settle a trust. There is a section that states "Distributions and Powers of appointment: If, on expiration of the later of either six months after the death of any person holding a power of appointment created by this declaration or the expiration of the statutory period within which a will contest must be filed, the trustee has not received any document purporting to exercise the power, the trustee may distribute any property according to the terms of this declaration as id the power had not been exercised." Both grandparents set up this trust and both have passed away. The last was OCT 10, 2011 over 6 months ago. the Son has been named trustee and is also a beneficiary. |
| My step-mother''s caretakers convinced her to change her will 10 days after I visited with her, and |
| Step-mother was deaf and blind, and was totally dependent on her caretakers. One individual accused me of upsetting her when I visited, and threw me out of the house, threatening to call the police. Step-mother told me that her attorney would call me when she died, but that never happened. The Will was probated before I confirmed her death. Her attorney is kin to the next-door neightbor, who got the house and all of its contents. She had given away all of her jewelry and valuables by the time I saw her. I believe that she was "encouraged" to do so by the caretakers. She lived in New Jersey; I live in South Carolina.. Am I out of luck? |
