Hire a probate litigator to represent your mother in an action against the executor.
Hire a lawyer to go into the probate court and have him removed as executor.
You will need to retain a qualified attorney to petition the Superior Court to remove your uncle as executor.
I agree, you should hire a probate attorney asap.
The above answers are all correct. You should act IMMEDIATELY in order to preserve the assets that the Uncle may hide or disburse.
