Trust, how much can my X wife get from a trust left for me?
What is the name of your state? South East
A few years back a relative passed away. He left me everything but the money was put into a Trust Example "Rogers family trust" and under the way it was wrote up I am only a beneficiary of it.
A person my relative hired to manage the trust handles the money, investments and disbursement's
I received X amount right away
4 years after that amount I will get another X amount
5 years after that I will get the rest of the money.
So in 9 years I will get it all.
My question is:
What can my X-wife get from this if anything for added child-support?
We have to go back to court in a few months and she has said she will have me testify on when I get it and so on.
I will talk to a lawyer but thought some help of what to expect and the fact it is killing me to know if she can even get some of it and how much of a % she might get.
Right now unless I testify the trust is set up so that the only thing it has to do with me is I am a beneficiary but my name is not on the trust its self and I do not file taxes on it because the person handling the trust does all that. As I said it is under “Rogers family trust” My name is not Roger so… the only way to find it is to have me testify I am or will get some money later on.
