Q: I am searching for my mothers will. I do not have the attorney's name that filed it and I do not believe my father
ever filed it in probate. How to I get a copy of this will?
A: If the will has not been filed with the court I assume the proper place to look is yoir mothers home. Or ask your dad for a copy. Really not enough information in your question to. E able to answer much.
A: I agree with Mr. Williamson's answer. Also, see if you mother had a safe deposit box. Sometimes people will keep their will in there.
A: You can call around to local attorneys to inquire if they have a copy. Maybe you will get lucky. Otherwise, you will need to file probate intestate (without a Will). Best of Luck!
