Estate Trust Management Steps

Summary

If theres no will, start probate in Oregon where your father passed. Consult a probate attorney licensed in both Texas and Oregon. For your daughters trust issue, she should formally request an accounting from the trustee. This involves sending a written request with her contact details and a clear statement of her request. Trustees generally have 30 to 60 days to respond. If Edward Jones is unresponsive about your roommates inheritance, ensure they have the necessary documentation and consider consulting a probate attorney. For legal forms, websites like Rocket Lawyer, LegalZoom, and Nolo can be helpful.

It sounds like your daughter may have a strong case for receiving the royalties she is entitled to. Here are some steps she can consider:
- Contact the Trustee: Your daughter can formally request an accounting of the trust assets and distributions from the trustee (her aunt).
- Review Trust Documents: Ensure she reviews the trust documents to understand her rights and the trustee's obligations.
- Consult an Attorney: Given the complexities of trust and estate law, it might be beneficial to consult an attorney who specializes in trusts and estates, especially with property in multiple states.

- Her name and contact information.
- A clear statement of her request for an accounting.
- Reference to the relevant trust document, if available.
- Legal Formatting: While it's not strictly necessary to use legal formatting, it can help to make the request look more formal and serious. She can use templates available online from resources like Rocket Lawyer or LegalZoom.
- Response Time: In Oregon, the trustee is generally required to provide an accounting within a reasonable time frame. This is often interpreted as * to 60 days, but it can vary based on the complexity of the trust and the specific situation.
