How do I find out if I'm truly in a trust, when deceased told me I am but getting run around from family trust attorney.

Terry Lynn Garrett
Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
A trust is a private document.  If the lawyer only has a 2012 version, that is all she can go by.  The deceased may have intended to update it but died before he could.

My mother passed away, she didn't leave a will and we are 10 siblings who is entitled to her home?

Brooke Ashton
Answered by attorney Brooke Ashton (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Fetzer Booth Mountain West Law
In order to determine who gets property when a person passes away without a will, you must consult the intestacy statute in your state. Generally, if a person is married the spouse if the first to inherit. If there is no spouse, then the children inherit. If there are 10 children, I would assume that you each get 1/10 of the house. In this sort of situation, the home is generally sold and if a child wants the home, then they would have to buy it from the other siblings.
