Will

- Verify if the will has been officially probated.
- Check if an executor has been appointed to distribute the estate.
- Ensure all listed items and beneficiaries are correctly mentioned in the will.
Is there a specific aspect of the will you need guidance on, or do you suspect any foul play?
