Q: According to genealogy when I was a young child in 1983 a untrustworthy trustee changed the name do I start an appeal?
Do I need to hire the genealogists to prove that it is indeed my heritance? If it was already done in 1983 lawyer xx should have it in his files he was writing everything down do I have to prove it again I had three people do it in triplicate.

A:
You should consider starting an appeal if you believe a trustee made unauthorized changes to your name in 1983. Consulting with a lawyer is essential to understand the legal steps involved and to ensure that your case is properly documented and presented.
If a lawyer from that time, like lawyer xx, documented everything, those records could be crucial. You can request those files, which might save you the trouble of proving your heritage again. However, if those records are unavailable or insufficient, you might need to gather additional evidence to support your claim.
Gathering testimonies from the three people who documented the case in triplicate can strengthen your appeal. Legal proceedings can be complex, so having thorough documentation and a clear understanding of the process will help you navigate the situation more effectively.
