You need a lawyer to help you out.

Call me, make an appointment to come see me and I will see what I can do.

You can try Legal Services of New Jersey for pro-bono assistance.

Good luck.

You should retain a lawyer to assist you, as someone has to be appointed by the Surrogate to handle the estate, pay bills and arrange for final tax returns and ultimate distribution of the estate assets. Your children can probably be appointed to do this, but having a competent attorney will make it ewasier, be sure everything required is done and will be worth his fees, which are payable from the estate. Legal Services may not be available as there are assets of value in the estate. Contact me directly if you need more information.
