Need some advice [View all]

My ex passed away Friday morning in Carson NV. Our disabled son who lives with me was notified since he listed as next of kin. He has four children and all are in agreement on division of assets equally.
We drove up from Sacramento to make arrangements and secure his property.

Unfortunately my ex does not have a will and we are unsure if his estate needs to go through probate. From what we know it is under 100k.
We thought we might petition the court to set aside probate.
Not sure how to get legal advice or an attorney we can trust. It is such a small estate that could be eaten up by fees.
My children are not financially well off.
Our youngest is has been disabled since he was a child and our middle son is battling ACC cancer.
My question is has anyone in this forum gone through this or could recommend a law firm.
Thanks for listening. P
