Yea.. it took my late aunt 4 yrs... kena ambik banyak by them.. and a lot of amount i cannot agree, but close eye take only..

For example..
If estate got mixture of cash, fd, properties, share, unit trust..

I ask them to disburse the fd and cash earlier so to remove it away from the admin fee.. they will delidelay.. and kasi u charge..

Infront say will do fast, belakang slow like turtle. And the properties and land, all must use their lawyer.. and their lawyer will kasi full charge kao kao until very tiuu hai one la.. no discount kasi u, because charge back estate asset ma.

But, they will get all the work done for u la..
So 2 side of the coin

The will get work done, but they also will main game to squeeze u higher.. after all, that is their first and last business for the estate, so sekali tekan lo

If u dont want hassle going to each bank, and a lot of process which normal people will not get into and dont know how to go about, and got no time, then give them do. They can do the job, just grind teeth give then earn

If you like to figure out, then sendiri do.

But the deceased last will got state who is executor..
