Cheapest solution is to find the executor of the will (typically a family member) and confirm whether it is true that you have money coming to you. If so, and if there is no dispute about it, you deal with the executor to collect.

If there is some family dispute about whether you can/should get it, buy an hour or two of a probate lawyer's time for a consult. About 90% of sole practitioner lawyers will claim to "do probate," but they are dirty liars who are just trying to make an easy few hundred bucks. Look for someone who advertises that they do wills, trusts, and probate, rather than, say, a personal injury or family law attorney who takes the odd probate case.

Possibly you can get a free consultation, but this is less likely the better the attorney. If you have a significant amount of money coming your way, paying for an hour or two just to see your options will be worth it.

Why is collecting will money so complicated?

>>17353564
The process doesn't usually take very long, as the estate attorney will want to be over and done with it as soon as possible, so he/she can make money off other people's deaths.
Generally, you will receive a cheque, and some forms to go along with it. You sign the forms, basically just to acknowledge that you received the money, and to release... I'm trying to remember how this goes... to release the attorney of his duty to you.
I went through this not long ago. Get a cheque, sign the forms, mail the forms back with you signature.
