More details to this question:
My father died there is no will. He and my mother were separated for years and she wants nothing to do with any of his stuff. Now I have been given all expenses. Do I need an order from a judge to get it? Estimated value is well over $20,000.

The goal would be to avoid opening an estate. If it is all just personal property, stuff like furniture or tools, without much value, this will probably work. However, 20K worth of stuff is different. consult with a local attorney regarding the specifics of what this personal property is.
