Hello could I have a private post please? It’s bit of a long one but I don’t know where else to ask and it’s getting me down. My father passed away march this year, he lived with this women they weren’t married or even Ina. Relationship (complicated but he worked a lot and had known her since they where about 12). So when he passed away I was told he had no will so I was like okay fine. I got pushed out so much, I asked two days later if I could be involved
In the funeral as I was his next of kin and his only child to which she replied she’d already planned it all without me being there which I was quite hurt about tbh. So she told me he was getting cremated but she was keeping the ashes as she thinks he’d prefer to stay there as he lived there, which has hurt me so much as I have a daughter he adored and would have obviously wanted the ashses. I asked to go through his things she. Said no, instead she dropped me a bag of with a pair of socks, trousers and an aftershave I’d brought him but he’d never used (he wasn’t materialistic but I know he had other things better than bloody socks). So she kept telling me he had no money blabla, (I wasn’t concerned about money BUT I didnt see why she should get it) so I went to see a solicitor who tbh was crap and a waist of time and I couldn’t afford to keep going. I found out he was paying money into a savings account but I could never find out as she had the death certificate and basically o think she’d told them all he had no children. She told me all his cars were on finance which never made sense as he always worked hard even when he wasn’t at work he was earning money, she found out about
The solicitor as he had phoned the funeral place to try and get the ashses put on hold so I could get them (he never put them on hold) so she then turns up out of the blue and says she’s sold his car took the funeral money out of it and here’s 4 grand. (I think it was to try get me off the solicitors etc) did she have the right
To take money from the sale of the car or even sell the car when legally I’m next of kin? Anyway the question i want to know
Is there anyway I can get
The ashes? I suffer with depression and it’s making me really bad I think about it everyday. I’m 6 months pregnant and all o want is my father I know I have memories but 😢 thank you in advance if anyone can help, bit random and all over the place o know x

Oh also could you also add that they’d known. Each other since about age 12. When I went to view the body (had to find out
Myself where he was as again wasn’t told
No information) thenman said she had told them she was his partner which she certainly wasn’t she had a different partner. Thanks x
Can you addd to my post please, I’m not sure how it happened but he’s mother and father are both deceased. He’s not on my birth certificate so maybe that’s why? He has siblings who have never bothered with me in my life, don’t know if that makes a difference. She said I’m young and didn’t want me to deal with it on my own
Could you add to my post please I can’t afford a solicitor and he didn’t have a will. The funeral place told
Me as she’d payed for the ashes legally they were hers but I didn’t get chance too pay for them x
She has no right to anything of his if she wasn’t married to him and isn’t next of kin. I’d be trying to find a better solicitor. Maybe citizens advice could help you find out what your options are
There are some solicitors that will take payment after the case is resolved. See if you can find one of those or even use the money she gave you. She has no rights at all as you are next of kin. Hope you get this sorted hunny and I’m so sorry for your loss xx
She wouldn’t be entitled at anything , my aunties fella passed away a couple of years ago & they weren’t married & she had to leave the house they shared for years … I’d seek legal advice
My mum and partner were together fir 13 years when he passed away but as they weren’t married she wasn’t next of kin. She couldn’t do anything without the say of his next of kin who was his mum. I don’t understand how any of that could have happened
Seek legal advice.
Unless she’s listed on his will she shouldn’t have any right to do any of what she has done.
Hope you get it sorted and get your dad home with you soon.
sorry i’d b onto a better solicitor cos she cannot legally take money, plus its the banks duty to hold his accounts as she needs to prove shes next of kin … to answer ur question no she doesnt have the right.. also u can go to ur local death registry office and request new death cert
She is entitled to nothing and it should all go to u and she shouldn’t even be in his house
