Sadly my father-in-law died this week and I am having to sort out all of my mother-in-law's affairs.
Fortunately I have never had to do this before but I am not 100% sure of everything that needs doing.
We are getting the death certificate today and are sorting the funeral but as far as finances are involved I assume it is just a case of informing banks etc that he has passed away. I am pretty sure everything is in joint names, so there is no need for probate (is that correct)?
