What is the name of your state? Georgia - My Grandmother passed away in 97'. She left a dear friend of hers in charge of her will as executrix. I was my Grandmother's only relative,other than my two sons at the time still alive,and because I had'nt proven to be too responsible the last couple of years she was alive,thought it would be best if she left her friend in charge to see to her wishes were met properly,which was her estate was to be left to me (including some depts.)and everything therein,except for a few thousand each to be given to my children,and a cuople of thousand to be given to my half brother and sister, and 10 thousand to my mother. Then since there were some debts she left unpaid before she died,the estate was to be sold,and until I turned 40 yrs. of age, the amount left over from the estate was to be put into investment situations (ex.- CD accounts, real estate,etc) at the decision of my Grandmother's friend/executrix. My Mother had given this woman so much grief with her opinions, and such, that the poor woman felt it necessary to step down from her position of executrix, which left my mother next in line to become in charge of the will and my inheritence.Not only did my mother convince me to take her and the children on many vacations with my inheritence money (98,000 to be invested),and that her house was falling apart on her and needed much more than my Granmother left her. (guilt trip city!) Naturally my dumbass would give thE O.K.with so many needs and wants from her (and eventually realized that if I agreed to let her take some money out everytime that I could also have some money on request)that before I even turned the 40 yrs. of age to be able to gain my inheritence ,it was GONE!And to top it all off, my Mom is covering her tracks pretty well with self written reciepts,etc... ,and claiming there were TWO wills my Grandmother had written. Of course she always shows this newly revised edition of my Grandmother's will!! I sat down with my Grandmother before she died and we discussed her wishes. I knew what her wishes were,and this was not it...Nor mine. I really did need someone responsible enough to see to it that I would have that money invested for me,and I'm not sure or not if I feel like the law was truly working formy benefit at the time. Spending some of the money myself was also the wrong thing to do,I know this now,but should I feel justified in feeling like I have benn had? Is ther anything I can do about it now? Please help!!!
