When a loved one passes away, the last thing most people think about is having the estate of the deceased distributed ASAP.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, this was not the case for 2 impatient beneficiaries of an estate valued at more than $660,000.<\/p>\n
In order to obtain their share of the estate, the beneficiaries\u2019 legal representative forged the signature of the estate\u2019s executor so the assets could be distributed to the beneficiaries.<\/p>\n
In addition to the fraudulent signing on behalf of the executor, the legal professional also happened to be in a de facto relationship with 1 of the beneficiaries of the estate.<\/p>\n
Regardless of the desire to receive estate assets ASAP, there are legalities and timeframes that must be adhered to.<\/p>\n
