We think that my grandmother was supposed to receive money from her mother when she passed due to the selling of her owned properties. Is there any way to find out if she was supposed to receive money? Where would I go to find this out? It would be in L.A. county. Please if anyone knows the answer to this I would really appreciate it. Thank you!
The only way to find out is to describe all the facts about why the money was to be transferred. If a will, go to probate court. If a trust, go to the trustee. If by promise, no, she was not supposed to receive money.
The question is so broad that no one could help without a lot more facts. If the amount of money is large, see an attorney who can interact with grandmother and find out enough facts to see where to look for an answer.
