<human>: Hi reddit. I am located in California.

So my dad passed away June of 2014 year from pancreatic cancer. Prior to his diagnosis and a little bit after, he was dating a woman (We'll call her Jane) who me and my sisters did not like. She was very rude to us and just a very vile person.

Anyway, we were having a big party (June, 2013) at my dads house (75+ people) and in the middle of one of our grass area, there was a drain hole with a drain plug and small pebbles around it to make the surface level. Jane happened to step on it twisting her ankle really bad. Jane ended up having to have surgery on it October of 2014.

My dad had immediately opened a claim with his insurance company before she knowingly was going to have surgery on it. I asked him why and he said she seems like the kind of person who would sue (My dad owned his own business and has been sued once or twice). His insurance began paying her medical bills. 

There were a few open bills that needed to be paid, but the insurance had to first be in contact with Jane and she wasn't responding to them leaving unpaid medical bills. 

So this past friday our insurance came to my family saying that Jane has an attorney and is requesting some documents that we need your hand-written consent for. I am not entirely sure what documents they are yet as my sister is the executor of the trust and she won't be speaking to insurance for a few hours.

To me, it sounds like she is going to start a civil suit against my dads trust. The trust has a home and a good portion of money in it.

Does it sound like she is trying to sue? I don't know why else she would have an attorney. I may be preemptively posting this, but I am just trying to figure out what my options could be regarding protecting that trust.

Could you distill the essence of the text into 1-3 sentences?
