Has anyone done this?

I was left the flat in my mums will and thought i'd have a quick look through the documents.

I found probate and tax forms easy.....these look really hard. it's like, not even English!

What did others do? Use solicitors or plough through it?

    Did you download the Urdu version?:)

    Seriously I found the land registry form quite reasonable. What is the problem?
    Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions which differ from the prejudices of their social environment. Most people are incapable of forming such opinions.
