Re: Benificiary of Will

I would go on the assumption that this is a scam. Noone should be asking you to pay them money to distribute the assets of a trust or testimentary document.

Sorry, but I would avoid it.

If you would like to discuss this matter further in a more private forum, please feel free to contact me directly at the email address provided by LawGuru or through our firm�s website located at PasadenaEstatePlanning.com
