You want to find an inexpensive lawyer to help you manage your inheritance. I do not know where you live. You'd need to find a lawyer near you. Even if See also:

I did know where you live, I doubt if I could offer any recommendation of how to find an inexpensive lawyer. I don't even know any in the area where I live, in California.

You might check with the county bar association where your parents' live, and see if they can recommend an inexpensive lawyer.

All I can recommend is that you checkout some books published by Nolo, in Berkeley, California:" The Executor's Guide, Settling a Loved One's Estate or Trust," by Mary Randolph, and, if you live in California, "How to Probate an Estate in California," by Julia Nissley.

Good luck
