It appears they were the source of all my problems and the source of all the false allegations about me. I am now aware that these people THOUGHT that my father bought my home years ago and therefore believed that my home should be included in the estate! However, I do have documents to prove that this is totally false and documents to prove I made the down payment on my home, I made the mortgage payments for over 15 years, and I owed over $75,000.00 on my home at my father's death! These transactions were done by Robert Townes who was my brother's and the relative that illegally acquired property belonging to my father's estate attorney!
It appears that my and my brother's ex-families thought that they should get all my parents assets and property and all the attorneys involved helped them do so. I am aware of large amounts of money and property that my parents gave my brothers sons over the years. It appears that my father's suffering and this fiasco l and my children went thru for over 3 years was caused by GREED of others involved that were not heirs in the estate, were not working for me, my children, or my parents, knew nothing about me, my affairs, my parent's affairs, or the details of their assets.
These people also helped my ex-husband try and take custody of my children because of their GREED for my parent's assets that did not belong to them. Most of the dishonest, greedy attorneys involved help them accomplish all this because of their GREED for the assets my parents worked for all their lives. Dean Stein would not inform the judge of all this illegal, if not criminal activities, in spite of the numerous documents I gave him to prove my claims. He also did not inform me of hearings concerning my father's estate or my uncle's estate which I was legal executrix of. This allowed a relative to illegally acquire and sell property belonging to my father's estate.
Dean Stein also did not pay me over $100,000.00 that belonged to me from my father's estate which I can prove by the accounting. Nor would he advise the judge of all the illegal actions, conflicts of interest, theft of property, theft of funds, dishonesty of attorneys, and other illegal actions of most involved. He could give no valid reason for this. This was against my father's will and state law.
whatever you do, do NOT let attorneys or probate court get involved in your estate. My father took great pains in assuring his estate would not be in his will and power of attorney. None of this should have happened according to his Will and State Law. However, attorneys nor probate court honor a person's will or the laws!. Your Will is meaningless no matter what you do! The dishonest, corrupt, greedy attorneys and others will steal everything you worked your entire life for and they will ruin your heirs lives in the progress. I have yet to find an honest attorney with a ounce of integrity in Alabama to help me.

My parents were wonderful caring, extremely generous people who would give anyone anything they had, and often did! They taught me that it is wrong to lie, steal, talk bad or judge others,to try to see the good in others, and to always stand up for what I believed to be right and just. I have tried to also teach those values to my children. I highly resent the many accusations and allegations made of me which I was totally unaware of and prevented from proving were not true.
I will honor my parents and the values they taught me till the day I die even though no one else would.

The property was appraised by a licensed appraiser selected by mutual agreement of the brother and sister, then divided between them, and they then entered into a "consent settlement", meaning they agreed to the final distribution of all property in this estate. It even was necessary for her to personally signed off on all documents necessary to transfer the property and conclude the agreement and close the estate administration. Both the poster of this information, and her brother, were represented by attorneys of their own choosing at all stages of the matter, including at the final settlement. In the end, rather obviously, neither party was completely satisfied. However, I did my professional best to see that a "fair" and equitable agreement was the result, and in that regard, even if it was not recognized by the parties, I know I did my duty to each of them and the Court in an impartial manner.
This post troubles me for two main reasons. First, by involving my name in matters that I simply had nothing to do with, since they occurred over a period of years, and I was only involved in my limited role for a few weeks. Second, by not recognizing the absolute benefit that I brought to this matter, by diligently working to get this resolved for both parties, as expeditiously as possible, saving them untold additional costs had "their" battle gone on any longer. I genuinely liked both the sister and the brother, and it troubles me that either one of them may not believe that they achieved a good settlement of their dispute. Coming from a family of five myself, It always saddens me when family members, particularly siblings, fight over what amounts to a division of money, in the wake of their parents death, and especially if they harbor hard feelings thereafter.
In this particular "report" of "Gardendale Alabama", she makes a serious allegation that I did not pay her some substantial funds. Dignifying this with a response has been a difficult decision, but this statement of hers, together with all the other claims launched at the Court, the attorneys, the Alabama Bar and nearly everyone else, is unfounded. As Special Master, I never had control of any estate funds. To my knowledge, neither did her numerous attorneys. Nor did the Court have any control over the estate’s funds. Instead, she and she alone, as Executrix, controlled all the funds. Therefore, nothing could have been withheld from her. In the end, she received 50% of her father’s estate, and her brother received 50% of her father’s estate, and she should not post any more of these "reports", as all they do is to serve to undeservingly malign these various persons.
