Mr
I would like any suggestions regarding an inheritance that my children should receive which is an amount of £15000 to £20000 to be split between 5 of them as their mum passed 6 years ago so her inheritance from her mum who passed just over two years ago their Nan passes to them
The problem is the executor the mum’s brother has never written to them has sold the main asset a property & has not produced any accounts even though has been asked several times.
He has changed his phone number email is never answered very difficult to find & as far as we know is self employed & lives in another part of the U.K. & don’t have an address
The address he applied for probate from has been sold is there a legal requirement for him to tell the probate people where he now lives
Although to the children it is a substantial amount if they have to employ solicitors it is not a lot & I would worry that it could cost more than the amount due
Any advice would be welcome as they had the heartbreak of losing their mum when so young & now a family member seems to be taking advantage for his own personal gain
