A: Simply file your own Petition for Probate and ask to become the Executor under your grandfather’s Will. Same forms that your mother filed. Buy a book from Nolo Press on how to file a probate in California. That should teach you everything you need to know. Good luck! If that sounds too complicated, consult with a probate attorney.
