Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in California

Re: living trust

Contact the drafter. Do you have an executed copy of the original? Would need a lot more information, to give worthwhile feedback.

Re: living trust

rewrite the trust ageement and state it is an amendment of the former trust. You can read my book, in simple English, that explains all most people need to know. You can find it at www.yourlivinglegacy.info. Or, of course, you can hire a lawyer to take care of this for you. If you want to do it yourself, you can do so with the Living Legacy trust package on my website.

Re: living trust

if you have a dated and signed (and in most cases notarized) copy of the original trust, this can be used as the basis for any amendment. if you do not have a copy, attempt to contact the attorney who prepared the trust agreement. you need a copy because it is likely that at your wife's death, an irrevocable trust was created and you need to know the terms of that trust.

you should retain an attorney to assist you with this matter.
