Re: Personal Representive
You need (through an attorney who handles these matters) to file a Petition with the Probate Court notifying them that the original PR has passed away and petitioning for Letters of Administration for yourself as the alternate named in the Will.
Good luck!
Re: Personal Representive
This is an ideal example of why it pays to hire a knowledgable attorney. You could argue with the sister for months while the money is frittered away or you could hire an attorney who can straighten this out asap. Call around, ask around. Get a good probate attorney. It should not cost much.
