Re: unclaimed funds
Depending on the value, you may be able to do a releasse of administration. That is much shorter adn less expensive than a full administration. This is only available to estates less than 35,000.00. Some counties have special forms for unclaimed funds. Call or go to the probate court in the county where your mom passed in order to see exactly what is necessary. It may be easier to obtain counsel to prepare adn file the paperwork.
Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!
