Dear Queenie,
My sister and I had an argument some years ago and we haven’t been speaking to each other since. After our mother died she is the executor of our mother’s will and she is refusing to give me the things Mom left me in her will – nothing big, just some small things to remember her by.
Queenie, is there anything I can do?—Grieving daughter
Dear Daughter,
You can consult an attorney. As executor of your mother’s will your sister is legally bound to obey your mother’s wishes as expressed in the will.
My condolences on the loss of your mother.
