    Have you considered getting your own lawyer, and petitioning to have the executor removed?

    Default Re: Executor is Lackadaisical, in Pennsylvania

    It is hard to remove an executor once appointed - usually they have to die, serious misbehavior, or becomes incompetent. The courts normally will not remove an executor just because the beneficiaries believe they are moving too slow, or are rude - for that type of stuff. The general rule is a court will remove an executor only if it can be shown to the court that the executor is incapable of performing their duties, that they are unsuitable for the position or that they become disqualified since appointed. However, you can try. (need lawyer) Even if you can't remove executor, a lawyer of your own should be able to help you protect your interest in the estate.
