My son-in-law's dad (a wealthy California doctor) died, and the son and dad's lawyer were co-executors. The lawyer refused to give the son a copy of the will and estate, and he had to sue the lawyer to even get copies of same. The sad end was that the lawyer cleaned out the estate. (The lawyer had also been advising doctor dad on his investments, and had been investing his money with her son. Amazingly, the son made bad investments, and every penny was lost (in his pocket). The kids had to sue the lawyer (spending their own money to do it) and that (second) lawyer cleaned them out of their savings. Not only did the son not inherit anything, he spent $160,000 just trying to get what was rightfully his. California Bar Assoc. wouldn't do a thing to either lawyer. All this because the father really liked and trusted his lawyer. He must be rolling in his grave at what a total thief she was.
