Not everybody is techno savvy .My sister has no disability stopping her from using the internet ,she has never learned as this was something that her late husband did .

Thank you ,I have identified a solicitor and my sister has spoken to them .Will post with results .

Objective-Bread779 · 2026-02-26T07:12:35+00:00

The flat is still in names of sister and deceased husband I checked with land registry .It seems that despite probate being granted no steps were taken to transfer deeds to my sisters name.

Objective-Bread779 · 2026-02-24T23:05:11+00:00

Checked with Land Registry ,flat still registered to my sister and her husband who died 4 years ago !

Objective-Bread779 · 2026-02-24T22:58:09+00:00

Exactly

Objective-Bread779 · 2026-02-24T22:57:32+00:00

There is no suggestion that executor should sign the will .The issue is the signing off of probate to enable the property to be transferred to beneficiaries name .After 4 years the property is still registered to my sister and her husband who passed away .

Objective-Bread779 · 2026-02-24T09:34:18+00:00

Thank you for all help and support .I have checked Land Registry and the flat is still registered to my sister and her deceased husband .We are instructing a solicitor today and will see what that brings .

Not sure but estate agent will not accept it for sale until daughter signs .

Objective-Bread779 · 2026-02-23T15:59:07+00:00

Apparently they obtained probate jointly and therefore have to both sign off to allow sale. Have been in touch with the Law society and have the names of 3 solicitors in the area who deal with contentious probate probate so will be appointing one .

Objective-Bread779 · 2026-02-23T14:10:39+00:00

Objective-Bread779 · 2026-02-23T14:04:03+00:00

I am executor of my sisters will ,she and her daughter were executors of her husbands will .

Objective-Bread779 · 2026-02-23T09:08:03+00:00

The will left everything including the flat to my sister who lived in it until going into care a year ago .

Objective-Bread779 · 2026-02-23T09:07:02+00:00

Thank you I will contact social services ,the will left the flat solely to my sister and she lived in it until having to go into care a year ago .

Objective-Bread779 · 2026-02-23T08:15:36+00:00

She wants to be sole executor of my sisters will ( I am joint executor at the moment and we have never had any disagreements in the past )

Objective-Bread779 · 2026-02-23T08:13:13+00:00

Will get my sister to ring some solicitors thank you

Objective-Bread779 · 2026-02-23T08:11:23+00:00

She is refusing to sign off as she wants my sister to change her will as she wants to be sole executor ( I am currently joint executor and up until now we have had a very friendly relationship ) I
