Summons for inventory and account

andreak

Dear all, please can anyone assist with the wording of a summons for inventory and account from the Administrator of a deceased's estate? What sort of things do I include on the affidavit? I have tried so many ways to do this cost effectively but solicitors seem to want a fortune.

No specific wording is required. Have a look at https://www.kingsleynapley.co.uk/insights/blogs/dispute-resolution-law-blog/beneficiaries-in-the-dark-what-can-you-do-to-obtain-the-information-you-need

Are you a residual beneficiary? If not you don’t have a right to a copy of the estate accounts.

Anyone with an interest in the estate (which includes any beneficiary) can make an application for inventory and account. It's not the same thing as estate accounts - have a look at the link I've given above.

Yes, I am not only a creditor but the sole beneficiary...unfortunately the deceased's family fraudulently applied for and were granted probate.

Who was the executor?

andreak

His mother with her son as legal representative

Why was it fraudulent for them to apply to administer the estate?

andreak

Because he has 3 children...I am their mother..

That doesn’t mean it’s fraudulent. Was there a will? If not, I assume his mother applied to become the administrator. Are you the ex wife?

andreak

Yes it does because they failed to mention the existence of his children.  They didn't even tell me he had died. Everything has been disposed of without even telling me
