Thanks for this however solicitor advised it would be very expensive and not guaranteed.You can start proceedings to have him removed as executor.
Thank you for your reply, the cash sum is a five figure sum to 2 of us and 4 figure sums to the 3 grandchildren. The will stipulates our brother inherits the house 'subject to' paying each of us these cash sums.If the small cash sum to you is only a few thousand euro I would just walk away if I was in your place.
All that should concern you is your part of the cash benefit, the rest, the house, the account etc is noise that is creating a lot of mental strife for you but will be totally ignored if you follow a legal route to get your money.
The only thing that you should consider is spending a few hundred euro getting your solicitor to write to the solicitor that is a joint executor with your brother, saying you were willed €x by your mother who died 24 months ago and when will they send on the cheque. Getting further involved legally may cost you more than you would have received and so you should let it go.
I get that in your eyes your brother is behaving very badly and is not carrying out your mother’s wishes. You must be very angry. But while I am sure you would like your brother to be held accountable in law for the mess he is creating, it will cost you too much money to get justice. So my advice is walk away.
Agree the only focus is trying to get payment for everyone - we already engaged solicitor to write to both brother and solicitor executor (cost over £1K) but had no replies even when followed up with more letters.
.
Or walk away.
Or pursue the co-executor solicitor who appears to be neglecting his duty.
Through the Law Society at little/no expense.
Not saying it will be successful but best option I'd say.
The Solicitor executor is just angry with us whenever we call and says he can do nothing it is all with our brother!
