Hello, I thought my Parents hired an Attorney to represent ME and My best interests. My Older brother had changed my mother's will without my knowledge. He would not release an inheritance. My Father and Step mother hired an attorney, I was told that that was FOR ME. I honestly thought he was representing MY best interests. I signed documents thinking that I was being represented. Now, My Step mother has control of my inheritance in a trust. I am an Adult, there's no reason for this. I don't trust her to hold or invest my money. When i complained to my attorney, he said I'd agreed to it, And that i could not even have privilege when speaking to him about my parents! HELP. I am an adult, I would like to be independent. I do not make 7 figures, I live a simple life. I volunteer,I help people. I live ethically. They are all 'money' people. I'm very smart, but not savvy. Please, I can't afford to hire an attorney, can I do it with the inheritance my step mother is controlling? This was my MOTHER's gift to me. We were VERY close. In what crazy world does a stepmother control her rival's fortune for a child she has arguably never even loved, and in whom she has a negative opinion? Can I file a grievance? Thank you...
