Report
I could write a book about her, based on my experience, but instead a review and impending grievance to NJ agency will have to suffice. As a beneficiary receiving a very small amount, I was not worried about receiving it promptly. But I didn't think, in my wildest dreams, it would take over three years for her to close the estate. In my opinion, she was remiss in her fiduciary duties in a number of ways including (but not limited to) - total (almost total) unresponsiveness (even to the NJ attorney general for 6 months), higher than normal fees charged (per AG), rudeness to our executor illustrated
