Hi, I hope you dont mind me using your thread but I am new to this and dont really know where to start. About 5 years ago my grandmother passed away leaving my uncle executor and Power of etterny (as far as I know) I havent spoken to uncle for years. I knew where grandmothers will was and called her solicitor to inform him of her death (which he didnt know) and he told me that her will could not be opened unless my uncle gave him permission to do so. What I would like to know is how long does a solicitor keep a will unopened after death and is there any way I could find out its contents without solicitor getting the permission from uncle? Hope this makes some sense
