No, those other kids are the kids of the uncle who is still living. For some wierd reason, she had it so of that particular house was sold, my mother got half, and the other half was split 5 ways with my uncle and his 4 kids. Very strange. Mitch Haley wrote: > "Kaleb C. Striplin" wrote: > >

Sounds like a living trust, not a revocable trust. Just as someone else mentioned, living trusts shield assets while the grantor is still living so that they don't become part of the estate. This is a good way to make sure that minor children inherit real property, for example. I had a close frie

My grandmother passed last June. When my grandfather died in 1986 she planned ahead and had her attorney arrange a "living trust." Basically, her two daughters were added to the deeds but she maintained control during her lifetime. None could mortgage, sell or transfer. The benefit was that this

I dont have the trust papers in front of me, but IIRC, my grandmother was listed as the trustee for her own trust, with my mother listed as successor. This was a revocable living trust I think. Maybe this is somewhat different than what you are talking about. All I know is that my mother now

The trust had to have a trustee identified in the trust documents - this is a legal requirement, especially because of tax issues. Also, if the trust was drawn up by an attorney or financial planner, they would have to be identified in the documents. You may be confusing term "executrix" for what

Well my grandmother always had these things drawn up and such over the years, but that last one we found was 98. Like I said, I cant believe she didnt have her trust revised since then. Im not sure there is a way to find this out without knowing exactly which lawyer she used. She could have

Yeah, whoever the trustee is (your mom?) wasn't keeping things current, which makes it pretty much useless. That's why you need a trustee, like an attorney, to manage it for you. Sure, it costs something, but at least then it's always current and gets executed the way you want. We did this as op

for instance, this thing is from 98, I cant believe she never updated it in all that time. Most of the property mentioned in it has long been sold. For some strange reason, I have some cousins in WA who have not been around here in 10-15 years are getting a cut of one of the houses that was s
