Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Texas
wills and probating
my papa died 3 yrs ago and my mother jumped in to change the will its a long story and un fair. the house and everything else was supposed to go to me since m yu dad passed 7 years ago but my mom moved in to my dads dad house and put him on hospice and a bunch of unnecessary meds that caused him to loose balance and break his hip. putting him in the hospital were he passed away shortley after. she had him to change the will leaving her with every thing and it states in the will if she is not capable of taking care of the estate then it goes to me. well its going on the last year for her to probate and if she doesnt have it transfered she will loose it. so does this give me the right to come in and take what is rightfully mine. if so what do i need to do.

Re: wills and probating
A will cannot be changed after the testator dies. asa person interested in the estate, you can file an application for probate with the court. I suggest you hire a lawyer.
