Buddy Randall Roach

My father died 18 mo ago and Atty Roach has still not filed probate for her to settle her assets. Granted, it was a bit complicated because my parents owned property in 2 states & were officially full time residents of the other state. I went with her to meet with Atty Roach & he stated that all ...he needed was the authentication letter from the resident state court that the will had been filed and authenticated. He said he would follow up within a week to her other attorney (located in other state) to obtain this authentication. WRONG. after waiting 1 month, I followed up with the other attorney-obtained the necessary document & had it sent to Atty Roach. He has not yet moved on this issue. He thinks she now has to open probate in the other state before he can open probate in Ohio but the other atty says this may not be necessary & to try to open probate in Ohio to avoid my mother having to pay 2 probate fees. He has not yet ever TRIED to open probate in Ohio. All this for Ohio property worth < $100K . Additionally, he is horrible about returning phone calls which frustrates my mother.
