Hi, i am new to the site so please have a little patience if i get distracted from my enquiry. I have had experience in the past with dementia my mum suffered badly with the illness a few years ago and passed away so i understand how it affects families,
An elderly relative of mine has been left property and a car in a friends will,
She has recieved a letter from the solicitors asking her to agree to a deed of variation to ammend and honour a more recent will that her friend had made in 2015
The will that has left her the property was made in 2003.
She is currently in a CCH in London and the staff say anything she signs would not hols up because of her illness, what steps must now be taken to honour the 2015 which includes several charities in it, can you tell me who would now sign the deed of variation on her behalf would it be her doctor or would it go to court for a judge to decide for my relative, any help with this would be much appreiated.
