I am an attorney that specializes in probate and I have this exact situation now. We went to probate court obtained letters of authority and immediately started eviction proceedings. Got the attention of the boy friend and now he is cooperating. Once you receive authority you stand in the shoes of your deceased sister. The longer you wait, the longer you have a hostile person in the home. I can be reached through our web site brmmlaw,.com
