Hiya, I had same problem when my grandad died he had a diy will! we had some many problems, I didn;t no what to do, he had a 242,000 house and total assets of 470.000... One of my friends told me to contact final duties, i was dubious but ended up paying very little and got it all sorted and divided out equally, the solicitor i first went to tried to charge us thousands, they really did help...... I now have a proper will set up nowing the problems with DIY wills, its scary that alot of us are led to believe that if we pen down what we have on a piece of paper and if die that will go to the people we write down.. well it isn't that simple sorry about you loss regards elissa
