Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Virginia

My dad passed in 2012, left my brother as executor. He left us both 50/50 of everything, including 2 properties. My brother asked to buy my part of both properties, but has not done so yet. Keeps making excuses about getting the money, etc. Is there anything I can do? It's been almost 4 years and he has lived at both properties free and clear.

Suggest you talk to an attorney who handles Federal/VA estate planning

and Federal/VA taxation matters. Information will need to be assembled

and carefully reviewed for a proper analysis and estate distribution

plan to be implemented. An experienced estate/tax attorney in VA should be

able to handle this type of matter and to protect the interests of the

client. Please note that, in accordance with the VA Code of

Professional Responsibility for Attorneys, a signed engagement letter

is necessary in order to engage my legal services. If I can be of any

help to you or people you know, contact me as I would be pleased to

provide tax/legal support.
