Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in California

Re: living trusts

this depends upon the language of the original trust document. you should retain a qualified attorney to review the documents, obtain additional facts, provide you with advice, and prepare any needed petitions to be filed with the superior court.

Re: living trusts

It depends on the terms of the trust. Normally, there is a decedent's trust and a surviving spouse's trust created after the first passing. The decedent's trust normally becomes irrevocable, but can be used if the surviving spouse shows necessity.

I have dealt with similar siuations and they are always complicated and sticky. I recommend seeking professional legal advice from a firm such as ours that specializes in estate planning. If not us, then I still recommend you see someone to protect your rights.
