claim on behalf of partner - passed away?

hairbrain05

My partner passed away in late 2005. As the executor of his estate (scottish) and the guardian of his only child, could i try to claim on his behalf? I'd really like to try & put it aside for our son...

Would they (RBS) send me the statements if i asked?

If you are the executor then yes they should be able to order statement from an instruction by you. A new guide should be on the forums soon and once it is then that is when you can start the process.

many thanks - so should i wait for the new guide, or send off a letter to request statements advising i am the executor & give solicitor details if they need to confirm?

I would get the statements to begin with, yes.
Please be aware that if newer arguments prevent a claim going further back than 5 years then we are very close to that mark already.
