You need to consult with an attorney. If you own a 1/3 interest in the property, you have a right to occupy the property (in common with the other owners) - if you are paying the mortgage, you may also have a right to reimbursement. A lot will depend upon the language of the Trust and the time frame since the mother's death - why is the property still in the trust? Why wasn't it sold? When were assets in the trust supposed to be distributed?

There IS no normal charge for something like this. If you agreed on a flat fee, then whatever you agreed upon should be what you are charged, unless the agreement is adjusted due to unforeseen circumstances. My guess is he is working on an hourly basis. You would be within your rights to request an itemized invoice. Depending on your attorney's hourly billing rate, which should have been shared with you, this should represent several hours worth of time.
