What is the name of your state? New York
Father died 1997 in New Hampshire, leaving total estate to mother, who had long history (dating back to the 1950's) of mental problems. Mother adjudicated incompetent in 1985, signed Will in NH in 1984. Mother died in Albany,NY in 8/2007. Will disinherited 3 adult children in favor of granddaughter and niece. One child not contesting, another, who disappeared in 1981, turned up unexpectedly and is contesting. I am contesting also, but only on my own behalf. Probate hearing was held 10/23, formal objections must be filed by 11/20/07. What documents are required? How do I go about contesting?
Thank you in advance for any advice.
