Will my grandfather's girlfriend have any claim to my grandfather's trust?

Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
Hawaii? No idea. In Oregon, and in most places where there are men and women, though, Much Younger Girlfriend isn't using legal strategies to secure assets. While grandfather is alive, he can spend as much on Much Younger Girlfriend as he wants. If she's working' it, she'll get a car and lots of nice jewelry out of the deal. Diamonds are a girl's best friend. If she's really workin' it, your grandfather will have amended the trust by the time you turn around. It is, after all, his money.

If there are 3 heirs and 1 had a power of attorney and dies, what happens to distribution?

Christine James
Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
It doesn't. The deceased brother is entitled to his share (his estate will receive it) unless there is a will or trust that specifically says the death means he doesn't get his share.

How do I receive my inheritance from an ancestor when my mother is refusing to give it to me?

Answered by attorney John F Brennan (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Musilli Brennan Associates, PLLC
It is, under the circumstances you defined, your money. Therefore you may have to bring an action against your mother in order to gain possession of it. If you cannot do that on your own, you will have to somehow figure out how to afford an attorney.
