<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">After 38 years of law practice, I have a probate involving a lost original will. We have a photo copy, with signatures, including witnesses. Preparing attorney is retired. Surviving spouse says she thinks
attorney sent them the originals, but she cannot find them, nor a transmittal letter from attorney. Spouse had the photo copy in her possession. Says she and H had not been to an attorney to make changes or new wills since the time of creating the Will for
which there is a copy. Seems straight forward enough.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
