My mother died on or about 10/10/12 in Johnston, RI, in a nursing home. I have been told by her attorney that she has a will and I am an heir. I have called the probate court, and no probate has been filed. It is approaching 60 days now. Is it standard procedure in Rhode Island to take this long to file the probate with the court? I also cannot get my Mom's attorney to return my phone calls so I can get my questions answered and obtain a copy of the will, as I live in Oregon. Thank you for your help.
