I have become an Executrix to my Grandmother's will. The will is written holographic (AZ law allows this), liquidating all assests, and dividing into percentages to all heirs. My Aunt, who will inherit a sizeable amount from the estate, has been found incompetent to handle this herself. Her children feel her husband, (their step-father), has made many bad financial decisions in the past and will do so with this since he handles all their finances. They will shortly be moving to New Mexico and the children all feel a trust would be the best way to go. They also feel the husband will not agree to this idea. Is there anything I, as the Executrix, can do to set something like this up for her? This money can be well used to insure her future medical problems are taken care of. No one wants to take him to court to achieve this unless there is no other way. But the fear is also, he could run with this money and leave her stranded for her children to take care of the rest of her life. In my Aunt's mental state, he is everything to her and we don't want to upset her but need to protect her future.
