What if the executor does not distribute the estate after probate?

If the executor does not distribute the estate after probate, the beneficiaries may have to take legal action to get what is rightfully theirs. This can be a costly and time-consuming process, so it is important to ensure that the executor chosen is trustworthy and reliable. If the beneficiaries are not satisfied with the executor’s performance, they can file a petition with the court to have the executor removed.

This is something that a probate solicitor may be able to help with, but ultimately it is up to the beneficiaries to take action if they feel that they are not being treated fairly.

If you are the beneficiary of an estate and the executor is not distributing the assets, you may have to take legal action to get what is rightfully yours. This can be a costly and time-consuming process, so it is important to choose an experienced legal team to fight your corner.
