Legal Question


Who chooses the handling of trust?

My father was a victim of a hit and run accident, and is soon going to be receiving a settlement. My father was hoping to have me in charge of the trust, but his lawyer states that I live to far away (about 5 hours.) I don't see why this should matter. The lawyer is sending someone to meet with my dad, who will probably end up being the one in charge. This is not my father's wishes, and it seems like family should be handling this instead of a stranger. My grandmother is now my father's legal guardian, but it will soon be turned over to me. Does my father have any say so in this matter? Thanks for any reply
