Re: Property after parents death
You need to get a temporary restraining order immediately. It can be a global restraining order against everyone, until the court can figure out what's going on. One can be entered within a day.
Let me know if you have any further questions. I'd be happy to speak with you briefly, free of charge. Best of luck!
Re: Property after parents death
If there is a will, it must be filed with the probate clerk of the county where your parents resided within 30 days of each person's death.
I would advise you to speak with a probate attorney immediately to determine your rights and what can be done to stop your sisters from removing property that may not belong to them.
If you don't know of an attorney, call your county Bar Association. They will be able to provide you with a referral.
Good luck to you.
