Estate Lawyer Inaction Steps
Summary
If a court-appointed lawyer does not fulfill their duties in an estate case, you can notify the judge, request a new lawyer, or file a complaint with the Massachusetts Board of Bar Overseers. If the judge is concerned about disinheritance, ensure the wills validity and consult your estate lawyer. If the judge is unresponsive, consider appealing or filing a motion for reconsideration. You can also request the judge to proceed based on the wills legal validity.Full Conversation
