Mother is exucutive of estate over My grandfathers living trust & has informed me that I will not inherit anything from his estates & has cut me off from all support from family leaving me homeless & no explanation as to why she is doing this to me & my children.

Good luck!
Do I need to have beneficiary on my house
May 28, 2018 10:22:42Hi, Ester!
May 31, 2018 09:22:17No, you don't need to have. But it will make it easier for everyone when the owner of the house passes away, because the decision of inheritance of the house becomes automatic; it avoids going to the lengthy process of probate.
