Can lawyers take so long with probate that they can finally end up sending out bills to the heirs?

What is the value of this estate? What are the beneficiaries getting?

There must be exceptional circumstances regarding the nature of the assets in order for probate to take this long.

Is there an executor?

Is there any distribution being made to the heirs?

Who hired the estate attorney and did anyone sign a fee agreement with him?

Were beneficiaries regularly informed about the progress of the probate proceedings?
