Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Georgia

The worst thing that you can do is to try and fix something that already has major errors without seeing a lawyer.

Bear in mind that while a clerk may tell you when you have a form missing, they can't tell you if you are doing everything else in a way that will prevent future problems. For a couple hundred dollars you could get a lawyer to not only draft what you need, but to review the rest of what you did (and still need to do) and be sure that you haven't overlooked things the court may approve but may cause you headaches later.

Probate law is far more than forms and there are choices to make. Making the right ones, for example, can get a person an year's exemption on property tax versus not getting one (just to cite one thing I ran into when looking at someone else's paperwork) and the clerks do not tell you THOSE type errors.

Without reviewing the petition that you filed, its not possible to answer your question. You cannot get specific legal advice about documents by posting on a general advice website.

You have made a mess of this already. Clerks cannot give you legal advice, but they may know of some probate attorneys in the county where the estate is being probated. Please contact a probate attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, many attorneys provide limited legal services, such as drafting a particular petition for you.

Please please please get legal counsel!
