Executor Sign Off

[Peridot]

Sorry you feel that way Mercury55.
As a residuary beneficiary the solicitor do have a duty to you too but as mentioned they take instructions from the executor.
i have tried to explain the usual sorts of delays that can occur.
I appreciate how frustrated you are with the whole thing but not knowing all the details does make it harder to explain where the holdups are.
i hope things get sorted for you soon.

Hello, I've now received final set of accounts from the solicitors, thier bill is £19800 for a £140000 estate, 14%. This is ridiculous. Again they want all 3 beneficiaries to sign before they will distribute. If I sign and send back am I accepting thier charges? Does this stop me being able to complain to the legal ombudsman?
What happens if all 3 do not sign?
If I want to pursue a claim against them do I need to go through thier complaints procedure first before going to the Ombudsman?
Thank you
