What is the name of your state? OK
I am trying to summarize several years of my mother's financial activity.
Her estate is not in probate because everything she had was either in her trust or POD accounts.
My sister opened a checking account for my mother serveral years ago. My mother's name was on the account but I do not believe her SSN was given as the primary owner since I did not receive the annual IRS statement; all of the funds placed in the account were transfers from one of her other accounts. This was done because my sister did not have access to my mother's other accounts on which I received copies of the monthly statements and could see what was being done. My sister has retained all of the records on this account and will not provide them to me. I believe a significant part of the funds in this account were NOT used for my mother's benefit.
Should the bank provide me with copies of the statements on that account since my mother was not the primary owner?
I need to account for changes in asset value, interest and annuity income, checks, and wire transfers into and out of brokerage accounts and bank accounts. I hoped someone knew of a site - even another state's probate forms - that could provide me with an example to work from and which would likely be acceptable to OK legal action to document financial dealings. (Both my brother and sister have threatened legal action if they don't get what they want out of my mother's estate. My mother's lawyer practices in another state and would not be able to represent me.)
