Re: Probate and Trust
If the grandson has acted as a fiduciary, meaning he managed his grandmother's money for her, under a will or a trust or power of attorney, then he has a duty to responsibly manage and spend the money with her best interests at heart. If there is a trust any beneficiary of the trust can demand that the trustee provide an accounting of their actions. You should look for the assistance of an attorney.
