What is the name of your state? illinois. my mother just died, and my estranged brother is the trustee and had power of attorney. i am located in nevada, and she lived in chicago. i know this is not a do it yourself situation, but she left me some money in her will and some in her trust. he got a reverse mortgage last year, since she's been unable to handle her affairs for a few years. question: having power of attorney, does he have the power to change her will? question:what rights do i have to ask for an accounting? question: who determines when to distribute funds or assets? last, i need to find a lawyer in chicago to represent me, i assume a probate lawyer. what's the best way to find one. i had one there last year,and he took my retainer, and did absolutely nothing for weeks, until my position, and timing of my advantage had passed. i don't want that to happen again.
would be grateful for any help.
