Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Texas

What is the legality of charging a "back dated" lease. In other words, the attorney of the estate decided to arbitrarily charge this 2 years after the fact, then severely punished at distribution. There was no lease and we had moved from this property. Also, this lawyer also withheld all my inheritance but a small percentage held in trust to the exclusion of all other beneficiaries for 3 years (statute of limitations for legal malpractice suit). this was to prevent me from suing. This took place in NJ but I'm now a Texas resident. Is this legal?

If this happened in new jersey, you need a lawyer licensed in that state.
