If you believe you are a beneficiary of an estate or trust, start by reviewing any relevant documents, such as a will or trust agreement, to understand your rights and the distribution process. Contact the executor or trustee for clarification on your status and any necessary steps to claim your inheritance. It may also be helpful to consult with an attorney specializing in estate law to ensure you understand your legal entitlements and navigate the process effectively.

"Rights" may not be the appropriate term. A beneficiary has a "claim" to the estate, arising from their inclusion in the will.

Also, the Executor should contact you and inform you of their progress administrating the estate. As a beneficiary, you may have legal recourse if you do not think the Executor is administrating the estate correctly.

You should frame a motion to have the court review the matter and render a decision regrading the issue. The court may decide the other heir should pay a portion of the costs.
