Q: My sister is executor of Dads will. She has dementia and has not filed the will for probate . How can I get her removed?
I need help getting her to file the will for probate or removed from executor as incompetent. She doesn’t recognize me has her sister. It’s been 1 1/2 years since Dad died and he had a large estate.
A: If she hasn't filed the will for probate, then YOU can. You'll want to get a Texas probate attorney to help you. There is a process for this sort of thing, and an attorney focusing on probate law will definitely know what to do. You should have a consultation with a probate attorney so that your father's large estate doesn't go missing or get eaten up by taxes, etc.
