Legal Question in Legal Ethics in California
I have a strange situation, my parents had a loan on their property, they died, Chase bought the loan, Chase somehow dropped both my mother and myself from all the paperwork for the original loan. I have spent the last 4 years trying to assume the loan in my name to no avail. I finally took out a reverse mortgage partly to get away from Chase, Chase sent a check to my father for the difference in the pay off amount. I can not cash the check, even though I have his trust papers which state that I am to be in charge of any and all monies, etc. They messed up and want me to get a lawyer and file a small estate affidavit. My father made the trust to keep lawyers out of it to keep it simple, it has become a total headache for me. Chase acts like it is my fault that they screwed up. Is there anything I can do to make them send me the check in my name or allow me to cash and deposit it in a checking account I have with Chase? HELP

This is not the appropriate category for this question. This category is for people who have concerns with the law and ethics concerning the practice of attorneys in the State of California. you need to repost in either Probate or Real Estate. You may want to reword your post as well, because it does not make much sense.
