Re: why do i need probate atty?

I am not sure why you are at any litigation stage. If the asset that you and your deceased wife owned was the home then this probate should not be that involved. You may not even have to go through probate if the house was titled in your name as a joint owner. Feel free to call me to further discuss this matter.
