Estate Planning lawyer at Musilli Brennan Associates, PLLC
You should see an attorney, perhaps you will have to open a probate estate for your father in order to get letters of authority as his executor or personal representative which will allow you to retrieve the medical records.

What are the risks of being a beneficiary with a trustee you can't trust?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Bruce Darrell Steiner (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Kleinberg, Kaplan, Wolff Cohen, P.C.
If his sister is not entirely mentally stable, perhaps she might not be the best choice as trustee. Perhaps he might name one or more other persons, or a bank or trust company, or one or more other persons together with a bank or trust company, as trustee(s). You could be one of the trustees. He could give you the power to remove and replace the trustees (provided the replacement trustee is not a close relative or subordinate employee). He should also make sure his Will is appropriate from an estate tax standpoint.
