What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? california
My mother just passed away. I am a beneficiary and ( I believe) a
co-trustee along with moms niece on Mom's living trust ( an LLC ). This same niece is also executor of moms living trust.
THE PROBLEM: I do not have a copy of the trust yet and mom's niece wants me to meet her at mom's bank to change names ( probably adding her name )on mom's bank accounts which at this time are held jointly by my deceased mom and myself. I requested that I see trust first before I go to the bank and she said to me that she is able to do this at the bank without me and if I refuse....she will remove my name from the bank accounts. That I am making trouble. Moms estate attorney will not return my phone calls and I don't know where I stand with the trust...I am totally in the dark. I feel very intimidated...should I go to the bank with her... Is this what an executor needs to do ?? Am I worrying needlessly?
