QUESTION
How do I get my sister to sign a quit claim on property in our mothers trust?
Asked on May 09th, 2011 on Estate Planning - Florida
More details to this question:
My sister has removed a $460,000 property from our deceased mother's trust. I wish to remove 2 pieces of property totaling $315,000. Thus leaving $10,000 in the trust. My sister refuses to sign a quitclaim because she wishes to avoid inheritance tax of the difference. Thank you.

Speak to a local Estate attorney. It sounds like you have more problems that you realize on this one. Good luck.

You should contact a Florida Estate Planning Lawyer to review the documents to see what rights you have. If she is required to do something and refuses, you may have to remove her as trustee and replace the trustee and then have the new trustee take the actions
