Under English law, a deceased person's property will be inherited by their spouse, if they are married at the time of death, their civil partner, if they are in a civil partnership, or their children, if they are over 18 years of age. If the deceased person did not have any children, their property will be inherited by their brothers and sisters, if they are over 18 years of age.

In the UK, when a person dies without a will, their property and assets are distributed according to the law of intestacy. The distribution of assets depends on the person's surviving relatives.

Children - if there is no surviving married or civil partner

If there is no surviving partner, the children of a person who has died without leaving a will inherit the whole estate. This applies however much the estate is worth. If there are two or more children, the estate will be divided equally between them
