about probate and share transfer ownership

Hi all,

I would like to know something regarding probate and share ownership transfer.
Let's say my husband has passed away, I would need to hand over the probate to the secretary in order for it to process for the change of ownership of the share of a specific company. However, if my husband is a guarantor of the specific company. Would I automatically be a guarantor too, after the transfer of shares?

Would I need to sign any documents at all for the transfer ownership of shares? If I do need to sign something, will the document state the shares transfer and also the guarantor details, or they would just state about the transferring of shares? Thanks guys.

    no one can tell you without seeing quite a few documents.

    company articles the terms of the guarantee and what can happen to the shares on death.
