Submission of original will & other related issues

AJIT KAWATKAR (Querist) 23 April 2016 This query is : Resolved
we engaged a lawyer for probate in Bombay H. court in 2015,paid rs 25000/-advance
************************* to filed petition,which he did in March 2016
After obtaining Memo we paid Court Fee Online[GRAS] -informed the advocate immediately, requesting for further course of action /guidance without delay.
After waiting for 20 days for his call he told us to handover All ORIGINALS[ court memo, Court fee receipt & WILL ]to him & that Executor's presence is not required.[which we requested/insisted for joint submission].
Experiencing his DELYE TACTICS at every stage,for last 9 months we are fearing to handover ORIGINALS especially "WILL" to him but to accompany him for submission in the court.[pl see our dilemma ]
In the circumstances
Q 1] whether we can directly submit all ORIGINALS without his consent & handover acknowledgement to him .
Q2] suppose we hand over ORIGINALS to him & he starts delaying tactics /misplace the WILL ,whether XEROX of will is considered as original.

Pl advise !

1. IF trust on the Advocate /Lawyer is over /lost, THEN the next best obvious thing to do is to remove the advocate /lawyer on record, AND conduct the remaining proceedings yourself, safely.
