I feel trapped as I can’t access my savings or sell my house. I’m in despair
My husband died in May 2022 at the age of 52, leaving me and our three children. I applied for probate over a year ago but, even though I have complained, it has still not been granted. I feel in total despair at the Kafkaesque situation I am in.
Whilst, thankfully, we have capital to live on (our bank transferred our joint accounts into my name), I’m not able to access and organise other savings, or sell our house, which I want to do before our fixed-rate mortgage ends.
