How it took six days to get a death certificate

A question about : How it took six days to get a death certificate

How it took six days to get a death certificate – issues with the West London Coroner’s Court and also the NHS 111 system.

I hope, in publishing the information below, other people will not have the stress and distress that has beset ourselves in the last week. Whilst this amounts to a complaint against the organisations involved, I feel it is far better for this to be out in the open and possibly prevent some of the problems now, not in the future.

How long after a person dies does probate need to be started by?

A question about : How long after a person dies does probate need to be started by?

Hi, my sister has always helped my parents manage their finances. Our father died 4 years ago and I presumed probate had been sorted. Our mother died several months ago and my sister doesn't think she sorted probate for our dad at the time of his death as everything was going to our mum.

(What should have been) A simple Probate query

A question about : (What should have been) A simple Probate query

Hi everyone

I used the Gov.uk telephone helpline and was advised that probate was not required in relation to the death of my father. The position as given to the helpline advisor was as follows:-

1. I was originally the Power of Attorney and am now the executor of the will.
2. All of my father's bank accounts ( Ј30k. ) where administered through my accounts as a result of his alzheimers.
3. My father was in a care home for many years and has no shares, land, property or other assets.
