How can I access my mothers will?
I am 22, my mom passed when I was 14.
No one in my family has allowed me to
see the will. My aunt who is a lawyer took
my case pro-bono when I turned 18. The
only thing I know is that the will is
probated. How can I access the
information in my mothers will?

At this point, since your mother's Will has been probated, this means that it is now a matter of public record which means that you (or anyone else for that matter), can get a copy for a nominal fee.
