Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Louisiana

You will need to have the will probated in court and have the court recognize you as the new orner of your mother's interest in the house.

It is a pretty quick and painless process.

You must open your mother's succession, have her will probated, and petition the court to put you in possession of your mother's interest in the home. If this is all there is to transfer, and your mother had no debts, this is a quick and inexpensive process,
