Q: How do I access my moms estate that had passed away in 2010
I live in California, my mom passed in Pennsylvania. My mom passed away in 2010 and her boyfriend at the time was trying to get me and my sister to sign over all of my moms assets to him so that he can take care of my half brother and sister At the time I was very young, me and my sister ended up signing a family settlement agreement for x amount. My question is how can I find this contract and also access all of my moms estates paperwork, as it was not provided for us years ago. Any advice will be appreciated. Thank you for your time.
A:
... hello ...
... go to the Register of Wills where the Estate was probated ...
... it will probably be archived but they will be able to help you ...
... you may have waited to long to do anything, but good luck ...
