Re: name added to deed on living trust

The issue is "who is the Trustee of your mother in law's trust?" and "who is the beneficiary?". If you aren't both, you have a problem. If you desire, have the Trustee deed the house to you and your husband and your problems go away.

If the Trustee won't, you will probably have to sue.
