i have gone to court and had the prior executor removed and I was then made the executrix. Now do I have the right to hire my own attorney to complete and close out the estate or do I use the original estate attorney with the estate? also, the will indicates that the executor has business powers on family owned business. now that i am that person, does all previous dealings with the business become null and void with the prior executor? meaning fraudulent sale of business or transfer of business to previous executors wife.
