If there is a will, it will name the Personal Representative, sometimes called Executor, or Executrix. You will need to file a Petition with the Probate Court. Typically, this is something that you'll need to have a lawyer assist you with, depending on the circumstances. If there is no will, then a Petition still has to be filed with the Court.
