FLAGGED REVIEW
This review is for a different branch.
Received an email from Trust Pilot to say my review of this firm was being taken down as apparently Brethertons do not like hearing truthful feedback. My late father put me as a Trustee in his Will and to be treated exactly the same way as the other Trustees but Probate Team immediately decided to ostracise myself from fulfilling this role on they said other family members orders. They all received his Will months before I did and that was only after I informed the Police who also said was suspicious. In fact I knew nothing about a Will as my mother told me my father hadn't made one when I questioned why she was cremating a staunt Catholic. Suspicious even then as my father always talked about what kind of send of he wanted since I was small and for him not to make a Will - just wasn't him not to have done. I was given no paperwork that the others received telling me I was to be limited with what I received. Lies told about a legal document that was required to market his house requiring my signature- saying they were in receipt of it when it didn't even exist. I was then instantly blocked from all communication when I questioned why I was being treated differently and like I didn't exist and the last 5 months have received not one piece of legal vital paperwork when the other Trustees have received virtually books of papers. Was told to seek my own solicitor too right from the word go as wasn't acting for me - just the other Trustees- not what my father asked to be done to single me out. When I did - they refused to give me a copy of the Will preventing the solicitor acting for me. Between them and the Estate agent selling my father's house - i have been totally excluded from any dealings with the selling stating was none of my business. The role of Trustee is to make sure all house sale is going through legally and no wrong doing being done but they made sure I couldn't fulfill my role in doing this. Them and other family members who have history of wrong doing when comes to financial affairs and one reason why my father appointed me as a Trustee. I refused to sign my name to the selling of the house so my signature was forged and with other legal documentation same done and then despite numerous phone calls and emails saying I wasn't signing - claimed hadnt received my reply and carried on as if I didn't exist. Extremely rude and patronising throughout. Claimed I watched too many crime documentaries when I questioned illegal wrong doing. My career has been based around the top police in the world and the Courts for many years so no not watching too many crime documentaries Patience! Just cannot abide wrong doing in any way and when I see it - yes I will speak out. The house was sold too months before it was actually advertised as sold as estate agent and solicitor were still advertising it as available deceiving potential buyers and the public. I was told by a source it was to throw me off the trail and to get all the paperwork drawn up and signed and sealed and not one thing i can do about it. That not suspicious?? House was sold too with property belonging to myself that despite me giving both the solicitor and my mother list of the items 3 times each - was ignored. Want them back please. All of it as sentimental to me in regards to my father. So more to all of this and what they have done is just criminal. This review will no doubt be taken down like the others but I just want to warn others to beware and do not be afraid to speak out. This is all going to Court anyway as this involves a lot of money that should have gone straight back into the Trust fund months ago yet not one penny to date has gone into it. Your guess is as good as mine where it's gone. Also when I did receive the Will - 2 pages I received out of 12! Kept the rest of it from me
