Did you divorce your ex? If so, she has no right to any of your property. A property settlement in a divorce cannot be reopened (unless there was a fraud on the court or something like that) A trust is a legal entity which owns property for the benefit of another. I don't see what application a trust has here. If you were divorced from this woman, how can she come back and claim your property after 13 years? Please provide some additional facts.
