Wills are rarely, if ever, "read" to the beneficiaries as so dramatically portrayed in movies and TV. Most if not all states simply require that the executor notify all beneficiaries named in the will and perhaps the persons who would inherit if there were no will, by mailing them a copy of it within a certain period of time. Each state may have different procedures so it is important to check the law or court rules on notice of probate. In New Jersey, the executor must within 60 days of probate send all beneficiaries named in the will and all persons who would inherit if there were no will a notice stating when the will was probated and in which court. The executor must provide copies of the will to all those who request it, but common practice is to just include it along with the notice.

Yes, a will can still be read and executed even if the executor does not notify the deceased attorney. The process usually involves the executor presenting the will to the appropriate court, which will then oversee the administration of the estate. The court will then notify all interested parties, including potential beneficiaries, regardless of whether the attorney is aware or involved.
