Hello! Cutting a long story short, my mum is terminally ill, I'm an adult, married etc, but my sister is still a child, her father has never been involved and our step father has no legal rights (there not legally married) so my sister will be coming to live with me once my mum has passed away.
However she doesn't has a will, isn't going to get one done, can't afford it, doesn't like facing the reality of a will and has no assets or anything to leave anyone other than my sister. So I'm wondering if I buy a DIY will kit off amazon and manage to get her to fill that in just to state she wants my sister to live with me, will this be sufficient? The website says it's legally binding but for £7 that seems too good to be true? But if it will work it will be ideal as I have no idea what will happen about custody arrangements if we don't get any sort of a will done.
Thanks if anyone can help!
