Left off of trust
I am the black sheep of the family, only child from fathers first marrage.
When he died he had a realty trust for his 4 other kids, We got along and worked with each other over the years but I was not on the trust because I could not be controled to do unethical things. 3 of the 4 others are now lying, stealing and destroying the property. I get along only with the next oldest sister who is being kept out of everything because she also is not unetical. The short question is there a legal way for me to be placed on the trust, my father had no will and also owed a construction company
Re: Left off of trust
This is a situation where it is important to have access to the original documents, and to know what properties are in the trust, whether the business uses the trust real estate pursuant to a favorable lease, whether the business assets are in the name of your late father, etcetera. Not knowing more, you may have a situation where the trust is only a part of the picture - as mentioned elsewhere, the estate may pass by intestacy, and there may be certain obligations under existing documents (long term leases, etcetera) which could prove valuable to the business, etcetera. This is definitely a situation where you should consult with an attorney with experience in probate and business issues.
