Inheritance worry

I wonder if someone can advise and reassure me please.

I have been left a cash gift in my relatives Will, she died a couple of months ago. Probate has been granted. I have a copy of the Will.

I do not get on with the executors, to the point where we cannot communicate with each other and I actually fear for my safety if I am physically near them ( long backstory)

Due to the bad relations between us I am worried that they will try and not give me my Inheritance, can they do this?

I don't know whether they are dealing with the whole thing themselves or have instructed a solicitor, I'm left in the dark. Is there anything I can do? Thanks

It is gob smacking how much power executors have .

Friend of mine has had to use solicitors to get money left to him in a will .Executor very dodgy indeed .
Can't think why a solicitor "wouldn't touch it with a barge pole " .

You are entiteled as a beneficiary to request and receive estate accounts which should show bank accounts ,house sale ,funeral costs etc . Easy for executor to fail to mention assets though ( building society saccounts ,cash left in house etc ) but something .
