Re: benificiary rights

A trustee of a trust has a number of obligations under California Probate code. First of all, he is holding the property of the trust for the benefit of the beneficiaries. His powers are limited by the terms of the trust. He is required to be open about the terms of the trust, and to provide you with a copy.

Let me know if you need some help in this matter.
