I have a trust but would like to make some changes, can this be done?

Answered by attorney Dwight Edward Tompkins (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Dwight Edward Tompkins
I give new clients a free 30 minute initial consultation. If you bring me the document, I should be able to determine whether the trust is revocable or irrevocable. If it is revocable, and you are the person with that power, then you can make any changes to the trust that you want to, including amendment of the successor trustees.

Is it up to the personal representative of a will to decide whether a homestead property is an asset of the estate?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Richard J Kaplan (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Richard J. Kaplan, P.A.
The Personal Representative, with the assistance of their legal counsel, can make a determination if the property is homestead. If it is felt it is, then a court order declaring it homestead is necessary. If not sure, then you file a petition with the court on your best determination and let the court decide. If not, then no court order is needed. However, if the beneficiary tries to sell the property and a title agent later determines that it could be or is, then you will have to go back to court to get an order.

What can I do if my girlfriend wants me to put her name on the property deed?

Christine James
Answered by attorney Christine James
Estate Planning lawyer at James Law Group
Meet with an estate planning attorney to discuss your goals. If you are paying for everything, since you are not married I would strongly recommend against it because if you break up you will be tied to her through this house. If she is putting money in, you can sign a contract with her that she will get her contribution out if you break up but you have to be able to refinance or have other means to pay her back. This is a very dicey area and I would be very careful - you are right to be cautious.
