Support unmarried couples when a partner/civil partner dies in the relationship

Petition Details

The law should reflect on the deceased’s ‘living’ circumstances and life choices in who should be supported financially especially when a WILL is not in place against that the law protects and supports only them of a married status.

Additional Information

I lost my partner who I was with for 2 and a half years and we have a son who was aged 1 at the time of my partners passing. He had started divorce proceedings with his previous partner but yet these where not finalised at his time of death due to amendments needed to the paperwork. I received no financial support from government bereavement support and myself and my son received no financial support from his estate. He did not have a will and government and estate finances were all awarded to his previous partner
