  • No will

    My uncle who I live with has recently passed unexpectedly he keeps in contact with his sister (my aunt) every day and I believe is down at his doctors/workplace as his next of kin.

    my uncle never wrote a will but for his pension made sure all 6 grandkids would split his pension

    he told his sister he would want his estate sold and split between the 6 grandkids.

    his sister is worried that their mum is going to get everything is their anyway to prove he hasn’t spoken to her since 10years old and it wasn’t his wish for anything to go to her, or is there anything we can do to stop this from happening?

      This is why people should make wills. His daughter will take precedence. Work through this - https://www.gov.uk/inherits-someone-dies-without-will

        If you disagree with the way the inheritance is divided you can dispute it, speak to a solicitor who specializes in such matters for an initial consultation.

          I should add that the expression of wishes may prevail in respect of the pension fund.
