A: The trustee is required to send written notice to all beneficiaries and heirs by law, so you may receive a copy that way. If you have children, they will definitely be sent a notice saying they have a right to get a copy of the trust — assuming the trustee knows the legal requirements. If you need assistance, contact a lawyer near you.
