Foreclosure & Probate At The Same Time

I have a seller that is in Probate currently. Her husband passed and she is not on title. During this time the property has gone into foreclosure and the bank is trying to take the house. Apparently the banks attorney (Citi) called her and said they were going to get a sheriff to get her out. Unreal.. If thats true, they really have no heart. She just got the NED, so I don't know why the attorney is calling and threatening her. 

She is low income and was working with a free attorney service in Denver. Apparently they have stopped returning her calls and really aren't too helpful. My goal is to help her take title to the property and pay off the bank during the sale. Theres plenty of equity in the house and I want to get the deal as well as help her walk with some money instead of the bank taking it. 

This is a tricky deal and haven't ran into this situation before. My thoughts are to try and either get her back in touch with the current attorney in charge of the probate or help her find a better probate attorney to help make some quick progress. Any suggestions on making this deal happen?
