    1. Access a Decedent’s residence after their death
    2. Attempt to locate the Will by accessing Decedent’s safe deposit box
    3. Petition the court for the appointment of an Executor or an Administrator to manage the Decedent’s estate

    Speakers will also discuss frequent issues and nuances that arise.
