Yes, I find that very curious. Since the attorney representing the trust has a valid claim, apparently the beneficiary of the trust doesn't want to risk being identified. I do wonder why.
The lottery has followed their rules and state law.
I've actually read the rules and state law. I don't see anything that gives the Iowa Lottery the authority to withhold payment. Do you? Here, I'll even provide them for you:

There is ZERO claim to the contrary, other than YOU. There is no problem here. Other than you.
I have no problem. However, I think the Iowa Lottery has a serious problem, if the beneficiary changes his mind and decides to pursue this. A jury might even decide to aware punitive damages.
He should hire a different lawyer, though. That's not a problem -- all he has to do is appoint a new trustee for the trust.
This lawyer was hired for a reason.
He is not the run of the mill lawyer
