    Is Legal Counsel Mandatory for Beneficiary Acquiring House in Trust?

    This ($6000 in legal fees for the property acquisition) was not part of the litigation. It happened years prior. A realtor of over 30 years told me that, in accords to the Trust amendment, a transfer of title could have been easily executed without any retention of legal counsel.

    Is Legal Counsel Mandatory for Beneficiary Acquiring House in Trust?

    The house sold in 2016 to an outside party. I have not received any proceeds to this date. I began contacting the Trust attorney (and Trustee) in 2017 - 2019 about the status of affairs to no avail. In 2019 I threatened legal recourse and finally received the accounting where there was $74,000...

    Is Legal Counsel Mandatory for Beneficiary Acquiring House in Trust?

    I was beneficiary of my mother’s Trust which had an amendment that stated that any one of her children would have the opportunity to acquire the house. When she passed, the Trustee retained an attorney (who turned out to be crooked - I am in litigation to this day, almost 9 years later)...

    Adding a "Special Stipulation" to A Will?

    **(I will be meeting with an attorney after completion of my will to the best of my ability.) I've decided to list two co-executors in my will. A main beneficiary is one of them, and the other is a much younger, very bright 18yr-old, long-time tennis student of mine. There are many valuable...

    Will Signing Process (CA), Self-Proving Affidavit, etc...Help!

    Could someone please explain this process or verify that my understanding is correct: 1) Will maker signs the will. 2) Two witnesses listed in the will sign the actual "witness" signature portion of the will, whenever and wherever... 3) Notary comes over to the house where the two witnesses...

    Almost 10 Years After Death, Trust is Still Not Settled

    Thank you for your feedback. I always like to learn more about these sorts of things. About #1: "Since you weren't and aren't the trustee, you seem to have overstepped your bounds at the start of things." Could you please tell me which particular action (or actions) would have been considered...

    Almost 10 Years After Death, Trust is Still Not Settled

    Don't think that a Trust will guarantee smooth sailing of asset distribution upon death... Mom had an irrevocable trust drawn up with her home (our childhood home) as the only asset. There were no debts. The beneficiaries were/are her two children with the eldest as the Trustee. She passed in...

    Naming Beneficiary for Proceeds from Unsettled Trust Litigation

    Thank you. How would one refer to this in the property listing: "Proceeds from Trust litigation involving so and so.......?" Should I mention the name of my legal counsel handling the case, etc?

    Naming Beneficiary for Proceeds from Unsettled Trust Litigation

    Currently in ridiculous Trust litigation due to objections to Trust Accounting. Death occurred in 2015, and I sought legal counsel in 2019 after no response from estate Trust attorney. Litigation still ongoing... I’m not going to live forever, so can someone enlighten me as to how these...

    Rebuttal to Denial Letter from Opposing (State Farm) Insurance Company

    Auto accident 4/15/2022 - 20 yr old vehicle I was driving had liability insurance only. Other vehicle's insurance co determined me to be at fault, but this is clearly discrepant. As advised by my own insurance agent, I sent the demand letter to the opposing insurance company rep, who is...

    What to Plea in Arraignment? : CVC 12951(a) No License in Possession

    Understood. But in the case of the bouncer employed by a private entity, he had the discretion to allow me entry, after seeing my birthdate on the expired CDL (which will never change until the day I die). Either he didn't like me, or he simply couldn't make the connection...or both!

    What to Plea in Arraignment? : CVC 12951(a) No License in Possession

    A friend told me she keeps a picture of her CDL on her phone as a backup. I'll assume, however that it won't suffice if stopped by a LEO. Not a direct analogy, but it reminds me of the time a bouncer refused to allow me into a 21 and over nightclub when I presented an ID (CDL) that was expired.

    What to Plea in Arraignment? : CVC 12951(a) No License in Possession

    It's been decades since my last traffic arraignment. Was cited for this while warming up a vehicle around the block prior to our mechanic's son coming out to do an oil change. Even though I gave the officer my CDL#, my full name and address, he cited me, but also advised me that all I had to...

    Rebuttal to Denial Letter from Opposing (State Farm) Insurance Company

    1) If the other driver had his signal on and stopped first, then he clearly had the right of way. 2) Based on the photo, it looks like you were turning right to go the wrong way on Peyton Drive. 3) Also, you first posted about this on May 15, and all of the responses were dated that same day...

    Rebuttal to Denial Letter from Opposing (State Farm) Insurance Company

    Both vehicles had stop signs. Other party insurance is NOT making a claim against me. Vehicle is a wonderful vehicle I inherited from my late best friend, but it's old-- a 2002 Xterra and I'm not carrying collision coverage. OVERHEAD VIEW
