  1. yes but as an outcast i will just sit at the back
  2. yes i have children and she wasn't interested in them either just my sisters . i dont know what to make of this caveat although i see she can appeal that and i have 14 days to respond. i am trying to delay appointing a solicitor just in case she decides to negotiate as you pointed out. she is in the dark that i submitted a caveat and i am hoping that she doesnt get wind of that until our mother has been laid to rest.
  3. hi, i have already contacted several specialists in this field and all are willing to make a claim under the inheritance act 1975 given my multiple mental health problems and they also inform me that my physical problems will also come into play. my income is limited and i am reliant on benefits and a partial company pension i was medically retired through poor health. i have seen medical experts throughout the last 20 years and have reports stating all my conditions and confirms they stem from childhood. from what i have read from the link you provided i have good grounds to challenge and i am certain who ever ends up representing me wont wast their time doing so if they are not able to secure some sort of payout. If they they take a large chunk of any successful claim then so be it. this is the only option available it seems.
  4. the estate is valued at approx £300,000. i looked at the link you provided and have made an inquiry with them. thanks
  5. she told me 6 months or so ago in conversation that she was the sole beneficiary. i pretty much knew that already as i was unwanted and my parents put me into care when i was 12. i used to have limited contact with my parents thereafter and only did because of my children but eventually they made it clear that they wanted nothing to do with them either. there has been zero contact for the past 12 years.
  6. Hi all and thanks your comments, no she is not willing to negotiate and i have lodged a caveat to buy seem time. at the minute she is unaware of this and her views may change when she finds out. if she is not interested then i will have to look for a no win no fee solicitor to present my case.
  7. thanks Ethel, i was thinking if i submit a caveat for £3 that this will prevent my sister getting the estate released to her for 6 months which would give me adequate time to explore my options.... is my understanding correct?
  8. i forgot to mention that i am unable to work and was medically retired due to mental health and am reliant on the benefit system whereas my sister is financially comfortable
  9. hello, I was wondering if somebody could advice and clarify on this subject as i am hearing different things surrounding this. My mother has recently deceased and excluded me out of her will as expected as i was unwanted and mentally abused as a child, i was placed into care at the age of 12 and developed life long mental health issues for which i take medication and am under the care of my local mental health team who i visit on a regular basis. I have had limited contact with my mother and the last time we conversed was 12 years ago. It has came to my attention that i may be able to challenge the will under the Inheritance (provision for family and dependants) act 1975 and can submit a caveat to prevent my sister from gaining probate for 6 months. i hope someone can advice further as this could be very expensive for me and i dont want to waste my time and money if i dont have a reasonable chance of success. i have already been quoted £250 + vat by a solicitor just for initial consultation. thanks in advance for any input
  10. i hear and understand what you are saying DX but the fact remains that uncle buck the original creditor did not issue one and the dca asset have issued one and i need to find law referring to that... i cannot just say to the judge your above statement can i...
  11. I am ignoring them but just trying to be prepared. have they broken any legislation by issuing me with default notice then?
  12. on the discontinuation notice from uncle buck it states that the balance due is £0.00, so how can they sell it to asset and also as it has been to court it has already defaulted so how can asset issue me with another default notice. will they still need to produce the original DN from uncle buck when requested or will the one they issued suffice?
  13. would it be worth stating that in the letter of claim which i believe i am obliged to fill in. also are there any threads about with a similar defence so i can research as i can only fine one and that is for when the claimant (also asset) took court action again after it had been struck out.
