Impending eviction. Advice needed
Comments
-
You would only be entitled to 2 months notice if you had an Assured Shorthold Tenancy agreement, which clearly you don't.
If you do not leave on 1st August it will be many weeks before a 'legal' eviction would be enforced. That is not to say your family will not try to illegally evict you - but I would think it unlikely as they have consulted a solicitor so it would appear they intend to do things properly.
They can't stop you changing the locks to protect your belongings - or indeed yourself if you feel threatened.
You need to obtain a copy if the Will and contact Shelter or Citizens Advice for help.

Buy a copy of this will to the probate office, there might not have been one in which case you are due a share of the estate over £250,000 value.I do Contracts, all day every day.0

You keep saying you are not bothered about the will, as you want to make it easy for your mum.
If you are indeed due something from the will, it doesn't mean that you are going to shaft your mum by asking for your dads wisheds to be respected.
No one here is wanting you to be difficult just for the sake of it, just do something to help yourself.Well life is harsh, hug me don't reject me.0 -
You need to stick up for yourself, change the locks, no one should be letting themselves in your home, and as harsh as it may seem, you need to protect your future, that is what the rest of the family are doing, your mother included, if you have been left anything in the will or are entitled to any money from the sale of the house, you need to fight for it.0

Don't look at it as your family offering you no help, look at it as they've given you 27 years as an adult to sort yourself out and now it's time to do it yourself.0

Don't think the OP is doing that, he/she knows they need to move on and is only asking for 2 weeks extension...the past is the past, that doesn't mean the Op needs to e punished for it, if he/she is entitled to more time (a judge is very likely to give more time in this case imo either way the OP will get that time as court action is slow) or money from the sale of the house, the past does not negate that.0 -

He's had years already. How long should his mother wait for her money, or his uncle wait for his loan to be repaid?
The OP has no right to remain in the house and he needs to get himself sorted, live like an adult and allow his family access to their own money.0 -

The OP has not had years, they have only been asked to leave now, so lets stick to the facts here, not twist them.0
