What To Do When Someone Dies

The list nobody hands you.

Someone has died, and there is a pile of calls, forms and decisions that nobody has explained. This is every task, in the order it actually happens, so you can see what has to happen today and what can wait.

Four stages:

  • Black, the first 48 hours. The few calls and decisions that genuinely cannot wait.
  • Yellow, the first week. The funeral, the documents, the money.
  • Blue, the first month. Notifications, entitlements, the household, work.
  • Estate, the long road. Probate, assets, final accounts.

Tick boxes, not paragraphs. Banks, insurers, government and utilities, in one list.

A PDF, sent to your inbox the moment you pay. Have a look in your junk folder just in case.

Written by someone who has done it, not someone who read about it.

General information only, not legal or financial advice.

Or have someone walk you through it.

The checklist tells you what to do. This tells you how, and what to say, in the same four stages.
