A successor trustee that's named in the wheel take over the duties and being and being appointed trustee without the courts
answered on Feb 20, 2024
If they agree to the new Successor Trustee taking over the monies, property as Trustee, yes. Otherwise Successor Trustee has a duty to ask for a Court to appoint him as the new Trustee, with orders to any Banks. etc. to transfer to the new Trustee.
Im wondering if I can just pay the ticket and get insurance. Or if I’ll get in more trouble if they find out I actually don’t have it.

If you do not have insurance at the time of the stop, then it is a crime. However sometimes you can get the charge dismissed with costs if you show up at Court with your new insurance card, registration and TNDL. It would be worth it to hire an attorney to represent you. Conviction for Lack... View More
In the Trust document the Grantor lists a real estate property with the title shown under the name of her single owner LLC, with the intention that real estate property, on her death, would be inherited by me and my brother, who is now Successor Trustee.

Hire a competent MO attorney to search the title and draft the deed out of the LLC. He will have to abide by MO LLC Statutes and probably have all successors in interest of the LLC convey as grantors as well as the Successor Trustee, which must have precise language to be enforceable. Make sure... View More

Why did your lawyer not move to dismiss the redundant conviction? Whether the convictions were in General Sessions or Criminal Court has some bearing on how to address it. But apparently you did nothing but go to jail. You might correct the record now and expunge the nonexistent conviction,... View More

The SSN will get a reported capital gain to the IRS. The other items requested have to do with proving your source of title. If you do not wish to comply with them, ask for another title company or title insurance company to handle your transaction. Your potential will has no bearing on this... View More
His Tow Truck business. So what is a list of liability, taxes and other legal issues my husband will need to consider first before letting the friend put his name as owner?? My husband will have nothing to do with the business.
answered on Feb 19, 2024
You husband is potentially liable for all torts caused by or taxes incurred by the towing business. Unless he gets paid alot, he probably should not get involved with such a one sided business where one partner gets all the cash and the landowner partner gets all the liabilities.

Will has no effect until testatrix dies and her will is filed for Probate. It can be changed or destroyed anytime before her death. Apparently family member improved her land as a gift. Hopefully he can remove it still.

Not sure of your question...But it appears that you got a deed, which is a title transfer. However
the property is apparently occupied by someone else. Grantee takes title subject to any rights of possession. Your grantor may have breached a title covenant in the deed. It will be... View More

You will need to ask the union to reissue another check in exchange for the allegedly faulty one. Or deposit it into another bank. But first be sure you have not done anything wrong. You may need to consult with an attorney as apparently your bank is wanting to prosecute you, and any forgery... View More
Has renters and are operating a daycare. The traffic has gotten crazy. Problem is they are destroying the dirt road and no one will help with repairs, upkeep, etc. what are my options?
answered on Feb 16, 2024
I assume your road is actually a joint permanent use easement. If so, then a title search may disclose maintenance duties. If just an easement by implication or otherwise, then there are probably no defined restrictions. Then at best, you would need a GA attorney to sue for property damages, of... View More

More than likely they are wanting a Probate Order for a fiduciary to marshal up digital assets of the Estate. This may not be exactly what they want, but should be close. They are not going to give property to just anyone. In the USA that would be Letters Testamentary or Letters of... View More
Non payment of purchase of building materials totaling $20,000.
Is there a way to recoup this loss?
answered on Feb 15, 2024
You are probably junior to the foreclosing secured debt. You can bid at the sale to protect your interest. But a sale without a surplus means your lien against the land is extinguished although the debt against the individual is still existent. If there is a surplus, trustees are notorious... View More

If you are the property owner adversely affected by the property tort damage coming from an adjacent property, then it is your right to sue for the damages. It will not be a simple suit.

If you are claiming title by adverse possession, then you will need an attorney to make an effective claim. It is difficult and is usually a defense to an action for possession or title, not filing an affidavit. You may need a deed as a color of title recorded, not what you are trying to... View More
As of Dec 31, 2023, my lease has been over and I vacated the rental property on Nov 27, 2023.

After a month with no deposit into my account, I reached out... View More

File suit against the exact entity that took your deposit. If there is a term in the lease, then breach of contract. If not, then conversion. But expect that the owner will claim damages to be surcharged against the deposit at trial. Collection of a judgment may require an attorney.
"Subject to a life estate, hereby expressly reserved in grantor and measured by the life of the grantor's son"
Does this statement transfer all rights from grantor to grantor's son?
answered on Feb 9, 2024
The granting clause is a little imprecise. That is actually an estate in the grantor until the termination of the grantor's son' life, and then either goes to a remainderman or reverts back to the grantor and his heirs. It is a future interest deed. You have not stated enough facts... View More

You will need a KS attorney to represent you. But generally any transaction involving the ward's property going to the fiduciary is presumptively fraudulent. That is the conservator will have the burden of proving his taking the property was for the benefit of the ward. But someone with... View More
I would like to keep my property in my family. If my daughter dies and the property goes to her husband he could leave it to his family in Australia.
answered on Feb 5, 2024
There are several options. You could make a life estate/remainder deed to your daughter for life, then to someone else at her death. Deeds take effect now with no probate involvement. Contact a competent NC attorney to search the title and execute a transfer to suit you.
