Q: My father has me as next of kin on his paperwork and all his things I’m beneficiary his job contacted sum1 else
His job contacted someone else and the hospital released his body to someone else and gave his property to some else ohh they found some random person on Facebook with his last name
A:
I'm very sorry for your loss, and the way it was further compounded by the handling of this matter. It looks like the person who could best help you clear things up before they get further out of hand with your father's property being improperly distributed to strangers would be a Texas Probate or Estate Planning attorney. You posted under the Personal Injury category, but if by your father's paperwork you mean a will or a trust, that is something a probate/estate attorney should advise you about. There is a section for finding a Texas attorney in those categories here (under Find-a-Lawyer), or you could look for an attorney on your own, or you could repost your question in those categories. Whatever you decide to do, move quickly, so that you don't find yourself in the position of fighting to get back property your father would have wanted to go to you. Good luck
