Visit the court and ask to see the probate file. Study carefully the inventory, which should include all the property owned by the decedent (bank accounts, real property, stocks, investment accounts, cars, etc.) If it doesn't seem correct then ask to see official statements. If the executor won't cooperate and you have an honest suspicion of dishonesty you can ask the court to compel the executor to provide information.
When the estate has been distributed the executor must file a final account that should show where all the property that was listed in the inventory went.
Any time you have a valid reason to think an executor is being dishonest you should seek help from the court.
What else can I help you with?
What can you do if you believe that the executor of the will is dishonest?
Find some evidence to back up your "belief". You should discuss the matter with the attorney who is handling the estate.
When a will is set up or changed does the executor have to sign the will?
The executor does not have to sign the will. They don't even have to know there is one or that they are the executor.
You did not know you were executor and do not want to do it?
You can decline the responsibility. The court will appoint another executor.
Can the executor know that he is a beneficiary?
Yes.
How does the executor know what was left in the will?
He reads the will.
When should an executor of an estate know they are appointed executor?
When the testator has passed away. That is when their duties begin. The first thing they have to do is file with the probate court to be appointed as executor.
Does it bother you to work with someone whom you know is dishonest?
Many people would agree that it would bother them to work with someone who they know is dishonest. Many employers like their employees to work as a team, and if one of them is dishonest, it does not create a healthy environment in which to promote teamwork.
Does executor know contents of will?
Generally, yes. The testator should make the whereabouts of their will known to the executor in the event of their death. If the testator has died the executor has the right to take possession of the will in order to submit it for probate. During that process they can read the will before it is made public.
What can you do if the executor of the will wants to change the will and the other two eirs do not want to change the will?
Only a testator can change her will while she is living. Once a testator has died, the provisions set forth in the will can only be modified by a judge. An executor named in the will has no authority until they have been appointed by a court. This named executor has shown they are dishonest. The other beneficiaries should submit the will for probate and petition to be appointed the executor. The court should be made aware of the named executors suggestion that the provisions in the will should be changed. That is a violation of law.
