A: Was the Will Probated? You can call the judge of probate in your county and find out. If there is not a will then you are out of luck. And then some people choose not to probate the will because they don’t want everyone getting their stuff. Unless you have a copy of the Will you are probably going to be out of luck. Good luck to you.
