In Ohio, you would want to file a case with the local probate court and petition to have the court appoint someone from your side of the family as the administrator of the estate. That way, the administrator can take whatever actions the deceased could have taken during the term of the estate.

You might want to seek the help of an experienced Probate lawyer in your area.
