Deceased left a house, no will, spouse had already died.
Had 4 children, now middle aged. Three still alive, one died.
Do you think the house sale proceeds should be split between the three surviving children, or should it be split into four with the remaining quarter going to grandchildren of the dead 'child'?
Legally, should be split in 3, I suppose...just wondered what you lot thought?

Sounds fairer. The grandchildren should only get the money gradually from age of 25, 10% every year for 10 years ? |

seems straightforward
https://www.angliaresearch.co.uk/for-solicitors/intestacy-rules/ CASE 1 CHILDREN✔ SPOUSE✘ In England and Wales, when someone dies intestate with no surviving spouse or civil partner, but with surviving children or other descendants, the whole estate passes to the children in equal shares. In cases where a son or daughter has died, their share of the inheritance will be divided among their children. |

Everyone should make one, willaid.org is reasonable, £95 donation to charity doesn't seem bad value.
