I never said that this was a legal hotline just asked a basic question at the top of the thread regarding "If a beneficiuary refuses to sign the final accounting for an estate then does it go in front of the probate judge?"
Additional information about the situation were asked and I put forth the details.
One does not encounter the process of estate on a weekly basis. |
No, you didn't say anything about a legal hotline. I did - because every question was answered; the response to that answer was another question; that question was answered ... and so forth.
Perhaps if you had posted all the details the very first time I could have saved myself some frustration and you could have saved yourself some time.
This all boils down if you want to GET some money you have to SPEND some money.
Retain counsel. |

The attorney handling the estate is being paid from the estate assets. |

So? Of course he is. That's the way these things work. Expenses incvolved in processing the estate are paid from the estate.
What we have been telling you is to get your OWN lawyer. |

Is it not the surrogate judge that oversees the activities of the estate, the attorney and the executor of the estate? |

Once, more you need an attorney to represent YOUR interests. The others represent the interests of the estate, not the beneficiaries. |

If the judge does not approve it then will it go back to the attorney for corrections? |
