What is the name of your state? Kentucky
We found out through are estate attorney that my uncle (executor) is gonna try and add his daughter to the will or contest the "construction" of the will simply because my brother is in it.
So, my mother, brother and I got a lawyer to defend ourselves just in case he does. We have also filed a demand of notice and after 4 months still nothing.
I decided to give our estate lawyer a call today to set up an appointment to find out what is going on. The money is just sitting there waiting to be dispursed.
He said he won't see me. I told him he was suppose to be representing me and the estate. He said "No, I represent the executor." Then he fumbled with words and turned it around on me saying that I had a lawyer so he won't talk to me.
How can he do such? I thought the estate lawyer is suppose to defend the estate i.e. everyone? We aren't suing my uncle or anything so why is he representing him?
I think my uncle is paying the attorney out of the estate funds? Isn't this illegal and a conflit of interest?
Thanks
