What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Georgia
Under grandparent's will, grandchildren are to receive equal shares (roughly 16.67%) of GP's estate upon a certain age. Within 3 timeframes (of 35 years of age, 40 and 45yoa) the entire amount of that grandchild's estate is to be given out. The will is held in trust by a POA (by the parent of 3 of these grandchildren). Other 3 GC are from other side of the family. That child of GP is deceased. GP entrusted his other child to hold POA.
Problem is that POA refuses to 'acknowlege' existence of the will even though I saw it myself! And refuses to pay out any money.
I clearly remember the names of the attorneys that were responsible for the drafting of the will. I do not have a legal copy of the will. What can I do to 'enforce' this will & force POA to reveal the estate's wealth and begin payments? I am 38yo. Have been fighting 3 years for a right to access to this.
note: POA gave parent the power to take away all money from one of the GC should that GC be declared 'unfit' to receive it. Other than that, when I ran this will past my attorney he determined that parent must abide by it. I do have a copy (taken by cellphone camera).
POA is dishonest and I am sure that she will attempt to cause problems.
My 16.67% of the estate is valued about ~ $3 million.
