I agree with Atty Lebensbaum. You need to go over the facts of this case with an experienced probate attorney. You should have received some type of notice of the probate, and of the closing of any account that was held jointly with you. There is a special notice process for heirs that are serving in the military.
You don't say when your mom passed, but you do state that your stepdad has remarried. Therefore this is something that should be addresed sooner rather than later.
Please let me know if this office can help you. We have an offie in Raynham.
