Hi there,
Firstly, any responses to my questions will be greatly appreciated.
background to my question: My father died 3 years ago and left his estate in intestate. My sister and myself are due to be the only beneficiaries of his estate. We both live in England but the intestacy is being dealt with in Ireland via an firm of Irish solicitors. We have a solicitors in England dealing with the Irish solicitor end. We completed all the necessary documentation towards the backend of last year. Along our journey, we have been given numerous estimated completion dates for our case with the last being April 2009. Having recently spoken to the solicitors in england and being informed that this date is unlikely to be met, we are getting increasingly frustrated at the constant revision to the completion of our case.
What i would like to know is:
1) Is there a normal timescale in which these cases are likely to be completed.
2) What can i do if we feel that the solicitors have not performed as we expected.
thanks for any help.
