I'm hoping someone can help me here. I am a beneficiary in my grandfathers estate. He died almost 5 years ago now and I have heard nothing from my aunt who is the Executor of his estate.
I tried contacting her, emailing, phoning and lastly posting her a letter. She replied to my letter asking for my details. I have given this to her. But heard nothing since.
I then decided to contact a English solicitor (because I am based in South Africa) he wrote to her 3 times but she has ignored all his letters.
its been 5 years now and even though the estate is not huge its still my money which rightly belongs to me.
Could you pleases give me the next step, baring in mind I do not want to retain the help of a solicitor as the expense is just to great. Is there anything I can do in my own personal capacity? i.e apply to courts etc. how can I get a copy of the estate accounts.
I have a feeling she has done nothing except sell ,my grandfathers house and pocketed the money.
Any help would be appreciated.
many thanks
