A will is not filed with a court until after the person dies.

However an enduring power of attorney is filed for people who can not look after their affairs any more.

In both cases the will and or enduring power of attorney documents need to have been prepared (signed and witnessed) by the person BEFORE they lose their mental faculties.

If you are trying to find a will or power of attorney document, the place to start is with your mother's solicitors. They will probably have the original on file.

If there is no will, it is to late for her to make one now and when she dies she will do so "intestate" and the state will be responsible for administering here estate as the laws of your country dictate.

If you are after powers of attorney, to deal with your mother afairs now that she can not and there is no documentation signed by here indicating how she would want this done, then you will need to get a solicitor (attorney) to apply to a court for these powers.
