    I'm sorry to hear about your Dad and the financial mess you have been left in.  Either call Citizen's advice or look up Solicitors in your area who often give advice free of charge.  You will need one that deals with people who have died intestate (without leaving a Will).  It can be very complicated and you need legal advice as you were financially dependent on him.  Don't be scared to call them, I worked with many solicitors throughout my working life and they are there to help you.  Take care and good luck.
