In the United States you can if the executor is not performing the functions of an executor properly. An executor can be sued to either remove him as executor, to surcharge him for losses he may have caused to the estate or to force him to do what he is supposed to, like transferring assets. If an executor causes monetary losses to the estate, he can be sued to make him reimburse the estate for the losses either from his own pocket or from his statutory commissions. All states in the US have statutes that govern the duties of executors and spell out the remedies beneficiaries and third parties have.

If the executor has acted within their authority then you will have to pay your attorney for their services. If the executor is found to have acted improperly you may be able to recover your legal costs.

What happens when the executor and trustee disagree?
You have problems. In general, when there are more than one executor, a majority of the executors rules on any one decision or action. That is easy. The difficult situation is where there are only 2 executors and if they disagree there is no majority. When there are two executors, all decisions and actions must be unanimous. If they disagree on something they either have to go to court and have the court make the decision or, if there is no hope of them ever agreeing on anything, then they should go to court to have one removed or have both removed and an impartial person appointed to serve as the sole executor.
