Your free plan covers everything you're likely to need in the days ahead — from the first practical steps, like registering the death and arranging the funeral, through to notifying banks, utility companies and government departments. It also introduces the basics of probate and dealing with a will, so you know what's coming even if you're not there yet. Every step is written in plain English, broken down hour by hour and day by day, so you only ever need to focus on what's next.
