What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Illinois
My distant bachelor uncle died. He made me beneficiary of a very small portion of an otherwise sizeable estate via a trust.
I was concerned about fraud. I asked the trust's lawyer who disbursed my inheritance to show me the rest of the trust document. He only was willing to show me the portion of the trust mentioning my inheritance, but nothing else.
As a beneficiary of the trust, is it within my rights to see the entire document? (Especially so because I am concerned about fraud.)
All parties within state of Illinois. Thank you for your response.
