A problem with the Heir

When speaking to the mother of a deceased son she was giving the information from a lawyer stating that since she lives in a different  state from the parcels/houses/land that her son owned she cant be the heir of the property since he didn't have a will, I called and spoke to the  lawyer and he said that he appointed an heir for the situation something seems a little fishy here, what are your thoughts BP family?

Total BS....where someone lives doesn’t affect heirship. Are you sure the attorney said she couldn’t be an Heir, as opposed to couldn’t be the Executor or PR, not that residency usually matters. Besides, he can’t appoint an “heir”.
