It wasn't really what I needed I read and read and read and read and I thought I was to do with for filing for probate or probate executor but instead it was for the property if you are executor and but it wasn't very clear on that so it didn't work for me so I was kind of wasted money
Sorry to hear that Norman. We've gone ahead and canceled your order and payment.

I had to call 3 times, two calls were hanged up on me. Thank you to 3rd representative, who helped me with my question. Unfortunately, I do not know her name. She was very patient, kind, professional. I am very thankful for her help.
Thank you!
