Personal property distribution law -- California

[EvaBZ]

California: My dad’s revocable living trust & will specified that I was the beneficiary of all his “antiques” which were originally located in a storage unit. He later amended the trust, stating those antiques were now located at his home address which was listed. Most of the antiques were stored in boxes in the garage or along the side of the house, but some were brought into the house and used as decor. Now that he passed, his wife (trustee) says I am only entitled to those items in the garage even though numerous items were brought in over the years or swapped out when they redecorated. Am I entitled to all his antiques located at his house or just those he stored in the garage? The trust did not specify a location in the house, just the home address.

I suggest that you consult with an experienced trust attorney who can actually read the document.
