Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Arkansas
Getting a copy of the will.
What steps do I take to get a copy of my Mothers will, as she is still alive and don't want to ask her. My Sister has a copy but we don't talk so I don't know how she got one.

Re: Getting a copy of the will.
Wills are not public information until they are filed in the courts. As long as your mom is alive, she does not have to provide anyone a copy of her will, if she chooses not to.
She may have given your sister a copy. It sounds like the only way to see it now is to ask your sister or mother.
