Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Virginia
Both parents are deseased; two older siblings were made the executors. One bought out the family business, was also given power of attorney, and now we're in probate. Myself and my brother do not get information on existing accounts, when we ask, seems there is a conflict of interest here, with the executor not only holding the business, but also totally controling the estate ( won't let anyone into the home, no straight answers about where accounts are, or how much is in them) what can we do to change executors? does the executor have to give account information to the heirs when asked?

Write a letter to the executors requesting copies of the will, the inventory filed and all further matters done in connection with the estate. If the executors do not respond properly go to the probate office in which they qualified to be executors (part of the local Circuit Court) and complain.
