I was named in my grandmother's will after she passed away over a year ago, and no one has told me anything since.
I live in Ontario. I was named in my grandmother’s will along with my sister and father, and we were notified by mail. It’s been over a year since she passed, but we haven’t received any updates. The lawyers haven’t contacted us since that initial letter, and the family members handling the estate haven’t reached out either. I don’t trust these two relatives, and I’m starting to worry about the money we’re supposed to get. Should I reach out to an estate lawyer? I was thinking of filling out a 74p form, but not sure. I've never had to deal with the law so apologies if I'm not using the right terminology. I also don't know if this is normal and these things usually take over a year.
We are each estimated to receive $170k if that changes anything.
Thank you!
