QUESTION
Can the family of a deceased person contest a probate?
Asked on Mar 10th, 2017 on Wills and Probate - New Mexico
More details to this question:
The person assigned as exector of this estate is very unstable and will not talk to the family. We are very worried about what is happening and is afraid of losing what is rightfully theirs. We need help in determining what course of action we can take.

Yes. Heirs, which are defined by the probate law of the state where probate is filed, have the ability to file in probate court to seek information, to contest an executor's actions, to seek court supervision of an executor, and to remove an executor. Good luck.
