What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA
I apologize. I originally posted this in the probate section but I think it was the wrong section so I am reposting it here.
My mother recently passed away and I did not even have the opportunity to say good-bye as my sister did not bother to let me know. I found out when I received a copy of my mother's trust from the lawyer. My sister is trustee and won't reply to my letters. I do not believe she will send me the small amount my mother left me, as my sister made it a point to turn the family against me. How long does it take for a trust to settle and how can my sister be forced to send me the money my mother left me? I know she won't follow the trust as directed.
