Wills and Estates

Can I obtain a will for my dead mother who passed in August of 2009? My brother who is executor and I do not speak. Is there a way to obtain said document without contacting my only relative?

If someone dies without a will in Texas can the spouse use a Quit Claim Deed to convey the homestead property to a new seller AND will title insurance be granted to the new buyer? The estate was not probated due to the low value of the estate.

I am a beneficiary of an Estate that final distribution was in 2007. I signed paperwork in early 2006 saying I wouldn't go after the co-Executors. Only my Sister and her husband actually handled the estate which had to be well over 2 million. We got no accounting. Several properties were sold, 2 sales of belongings. It is obvious there was some thievery by what transpired at the end and since that time. At the time she had us sign it seemed a little odd since there was still quite a bit before the estate could be closed. The brother-in-law has taken things he has no right to and my Sister will not say a word against it. Do I have any recourse? The Idaho statutes I found said you can go back 5 years if you did not get an accounting. Another factor is they are the only ones who had the keys to the home and a gigantic shop full of tools, snow mobiles, boats, etc. etc. very valuable stuff. There is no doubt he helped himself to whatever for there was months prior to the sales. What can be done? hope you can help on this because we did a business deal with them and lost 200k, more money than I've ever had before; it's obvious illegal activities were involved with that venture.

My mother passed away in 1997. We just found that she had a CD which was not distributed to the heirs. We did not know about the CD. What do we need to do? I live in Florida. My mother lived in Pa.

I need a Personal Representation letter for my deceased mother so That I can take care of her utilitiy bill ASAP?
