Issue: Irrevocable Trust; What Texas form is needed to Terminate?

Robert Neil Newton
Answered by attorney Robert Neil Newton (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at The Law Office of Robert Newton, P.C.
The trust probably allows the trustee to terminate only in certain circumstances, such as the trust purpose can no longer be satisfied or there is not enough assets in the trust to justify its existence. The former usually occurs because there are no living beneficiary to meet a condition. The latter is usually provides the trustee to terminate if the assets are under a definite value.

Answered by attorney David L. Leon

Although you would have occupancy rights in the homestead, it's a bad idea for him not to have a will.

It is not clear to me whether your parents created one will which they both were supposed to sign or two separate wills - one of each of them.  If it's the first RUN to a local estate planning attorney and get it done right.  If its the second and it was not done by an attorney, again RUN to a local estate planning attorney and get it done right.   Second you may be the named executor in the will, but you have absolutely no power to do anything until such time as the will is probated and you are appointed as executor by a probate court.   Finally, most attorney's who are estate planners can arrange for tghe appropriate people to assemble in hospitals or nursing homes to facilitate the execution of wills appropriately under Texas law.  It requires more than just signing it.
