If the inheritance is tied up in annuities, your uncle is almost certainly right--he can't get at it for any reason, unless there is some loophole in the annuity contract. He copuld litigate, but that will take a long time(many months, if not years), and a lot of money. In order to give you a more accurate answer, I would need to review the estate plan your grandfather set up. That would tell me a lot more of what you could do.
