Could anyone post a link or explain the steps you'd have to take to remove an executor please? Are they notified/warned first? He can't renounce as probate has been granted (and wouldn't anyway). Grounds are sufficient.

Thanks. Can anyone tell me if the executor is informed of the intention to remove him? Does he have an opportunity to explain his actions/plead his cause?Keep_pedalling said:

I would hope so. You’d potentially have any number of vexatious claims going on otherwise.RonsDaughter said:

Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.3 -
You'll need to apply to the Courts. Have you sought legal advice?1

You could google Contentious Probate Solicitors, you may be able to glean some advice for free & learn a little about the 'how' process, if they think they'll get your business.
I'm not suggesting you use one (NO experience whatsoever with that myself), but IF you did be mindful that "no win, no fee" doesn't mean costs wouldn't be awarded against you!
Maybe someone who has been down that route (succeeded or regretted), or researched it, can advise further.Seen it all, done it all, can't remember most of it.1 -
Yes, legal advice has been taken regarding if I have grounds or not. Thank youThrugelmir said:You'll need to apply to the Courts. Have you sought legal advice?0 -
