ESSENTIAL SADMIN
What to do after someone dies
We're sorry you're in a situation where you need to be reading Essential Sadmin, but we're here to help you navigate what happens next with the processes and admin that you need to do after someone dies i.e. ‘sadmin’.
Essential Sadmin is the site that nobody wants but everybody needs; we've been through what you're dealing with so understand how overwhelming and confusing it can be. We’re here to give you a completely independent, clear and practical guide to what sadmin you need to do, all in one place.
To help you further, we have a handy checklist, with clickable links, for you to download or print out to tick off your sadmin.
We should say that this site and our advice is based solely on our experiences in the UK; there may be some variations in Ireland, Scotland and Wales, and whilst Essential Sadmin will provide you with the roadmap you need, we’re not lawyers, so it's not designed to replace legal advice.
Our hope is that Essential Sadmin helps ease the burden and guides you through this difficult time.
