Hi,
Just looking for some clarification as my uncle was a bit light on detail and also what i am suppose to do.
My grandad died a week ago and my uncle has informed me that I am named in the will (with my sister) to receive a large amount of cash which is useful currently as the day after I was told I was at risk of redundency.
However the confusing part is my mum died 2 years ago and she was also named in the will and I think what my uncle is implying is that I am entitled to half her share?
Now my questions
- do I need to declare my intention to the solicitor?
- in doing so I assume I denounce my named claim in the will?
- is it my legal duty to ensure my mum claim is more than the amount he left me?
