My sister (joint executor with my brother) passed executor duties to a solicitor following my Dad's death 2 years ago.* I found it yesterday that she received all the proceeds £980,000 by BACS transfer the middle of last month but has contacted no one and will not answer her landline or mobile.*
What do I do?? I spoke to my brother he did not know about the transfer and believes that she is going to give him a cheque to share out the amount equally between us.* I hold no such faith, as the solicitor could easily have done that if requested insteed she asked for ot to be transferred all to her. Can I somehow get her accounts frozen? I fear she will steal our share and hide all the money.
Please help me know what actions are open to me.* I have just appointed solicitors but am a new client and am not sure how fast they will act or what I can ask them to do immediately. Should the other solicitors not have notified us about the release of funds?
