Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Texas

my mother dies in april 2010, she didnt have a will of any kind, I dont know what to do or how to go about anything, I have a sister and 2 brothers but none of them are helping me find out what I need to do with my mothers property or bank accounts. I dont know what kind of lawyer I need, she died in tarrant county and I live in Lee county, almost 4hrs away from where she passed away, there is nothing in writting from her about who gets what or what to do with anything...what do I do?

I'm sorry to hear about your mother. As for what to do, the first step is to make a list of all her assets and liabilities. Does she have a house? Car? Credit card? Do you know if she had life insurance? Once you make these lists, you can visit with a probate lawyer. There are several different procedures you can do to clear title to her assets, pay off her liabilities, etc.

Feel free to email or call me if you would like to discuss this further.
