Go to the probate court and ask to be appointed the executor. In most places there is a simple couple of forms to fill out, including a listing of all possible beneficiaries.

An executor is appointed only when the decedent left a will. If there is no will then a qualified person must petition to be appointed the administrator of the estate. Persons who are qualified may vary from state to state but include family members, creditors or a public administrator if is no next of kin. You should consult with an attorney who specializes in probate law.

Typically, this is something you will have to do in the probate court for your mother's estate. You will need to ensure that you comply with all local laws and that you have fully understood the procedures and processes within the probate court for your jurisdiction.

You will make your application to the court to be appointed the administrator, then allow the court to appoint you as administrator. Once you are the administrator of the intestate assets of your mother, you can, in compliance with local law, process the estate.
