Generally, an agreement to make a will must be in writing. You would need written evidence signed by the decedent to prevail in such a claim. You should consult with an attorney in your area to determine what, if any, other evidence may be helpful.

Can beneficiary of trust tell a trustee what to do?

They most certainly may not! The entire purpose of the trust is to prevent the beneficiary from controlling the trust. The responsibility lies with the trustee to maintain the trust as it was set up. Actually, it depends on what kind of a trust is involved. For example, a Land Trust is beneficiary driven....meaning the beneficiary tells the Trustee what to do by letter of direction. Most all other types of trusts are Trustee driven and decisions are made by the Trustee. Randy Hughes
