Manxman_in_exile said:endaf - if you employed a solicitor to administer your father's intestacy and they have letters of administration, you should leave them* to sort this out with your brother. If your brother has any legitimate "extra" claim (and none of us here have any idea whether he may or may not) I'd be surprised if your solicitor had not already identified that.You should tell your brother that he (or his solicitor if he really has one) needs to be dealing with the administration solicitor - it's him (or her) that needs to get this right.*Did you post earlier that you and your sister would seek advice from another solicitor? You've already appointed one to deal with the intestacy - speak to them otherwise you and your sister will be instructing two different solicitors.0

So what's the problem? The solicitor has followed the will.
if your brother persists in his claim tell him to contact the solicitor.0
