If your mother had a will, then the executor of the will must file it with the probate court within 30 days. You should go down to the probate court in the town where your mother lived to see if an estate was opened. If after 30 days, an estate was not opened and the will (if she had one) has not been filed, then you can open an estate yourself as her daughter and heir.
