I have searched through the DisBoard Forums and all over the Internet to try and find an answer to this question but surprisingly there is very little information.
My Father-in-Law died at the beginning of the year and I am trying to help my Mother-in-Law deal with most of the DVC and other paperwork. We live in the UK and thanks to DisBoards I have managed to find out that a simple form together with death certificate can be signed by a notary in the UK - this will suffice for Disney to amend their DVC records.
However, the letter sent from Disney also states,
We do not record this Affidavit or the death certificate in the county records where the above referenced Ownership Interest is located. You would need to make your own arrangements or contact an attorney for that type of service. This Affidavit is for our internal use only.
I have checked through the documents available to download at the Orange County Clerks Office - www.myorangeclerk.com - but just can't figure it out. It may well be too difficult for me to sort out without an Attorney but over the past few weeks I have found that most of the official paperwork that I have had to file has been very simple (once I managed to find out the process). I'm still hopeful this paperwork will be a simple process as well based on a few comments I have found from people who have gone through the same experience. What I haven't managed to find is an explanation of what to do.
Can anybody point me in the right direction or do people think this is a difficult process that would definitely require a legal representative in Florida. We all fly out to stay in Disney on 11th April. It's supposed to be a celebration of the Father-in-Laws life so I'm trying to keep the official paperwork side to a minimum for my Mother-in-Law.
Thanks in advance for any comments or help.
