So, let me guess: your father died and he was rich. Dad had a big house on the water in Jupiter, Florida and millions in a bank on PGA in Palm Beach Gardens.
- You learn that there is no Palm Beach probate
- Why? you wonder…..
- Nothing filed but the will at the probate court in Palm Beach Gardens
- But you get a letter from an estate lawyer in Boca Raton that says he or she is the successor trustee to dad’s Florida living trust
- Can you get a copy of the trust or does the trustee get to run the family trust in secret?
