In general, you have the right to an accounting. You also have rights to distributions to the extent the trust agreement so provides. However, most trust agreements give the trustee the discretion on whether and when to make distributions.

What would you think if a trustee asks you to sign away your rights to a trust so he can reinvest the money?
A person with assets sometimes decides to set aside some of those assets in a trust that will pay over the profits, or assets for the use and benefit of another person. A trustee is appointed to act in regards to the trust property. Generally, the power to reinvest the trust property is included in the powers of the trustee. A beneficiary would not be required to sign away rights as a beneficiary so the trust funds could be reinvested. The beneficiary is someone the donor cares about. The trust instrument, written by the donor, directs what the trustee may do with the trust property and how the payments must be made to the beneficiary. The trustee MUST follow the provisions of the trust unless the trust instrument allows her/him to use discretion. To your question: It raises suspicion that the trustee has asked that you "sign away your rights in the trust". You should seek the advice of an attorney who could review the trust and the actions of the trustee and advise you on how you should proceed in order to protect your interests as a beneficiary. Until then, sign nothing.
