Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Texas
Money from estate to relative in jail
I am the executor of my mom's estate and have a brother who is to receive money from the estate. He has told other family members that he would like the money send to him.
Due to the amount of money I believe he should put most of it into some type a bank account. If he agrees my question then is is there away to set up a sort of trust account for him and possibly send him money from that account monthly etc.
Thanks for any help

Sure. You can set up a trust account for him and make periodic payments. You might want to talk with someone from the Department of Corrections about getting an account set up within the prison system for you to make the deposit and for him to have access.
