Generally, jointly held property passes automatically to the surviving joint owner. It does not become a probate asset so it is not exposed to creditors. However, the situation changes if the creditor attached the property prior to the death of the debtor. Creditors can attach jointly held property while the debtor is living but if a creditor fails to attach prior to the death of the debtor then the property passes to the surviving joint tenant and the creditor is out of luck.
It depends upon many factors, such as if the deceased died intestate (or without a will), or if the deceased had a trust. It is best to consult an attorney for this matter.

The right of survivorship literally means that a will is not required. That is, between two people (A and B, for example) who are co-tenants with right of survivorship to a piece of property, the one of A and B who is alive after the other's death will own the property in full. So if A dies first, B will own the property outright, and if B dies first, A will own the property outright. So in any case, right of survivorship by its very existence means that a will is not required regarding that particular item of property only.

Once the Petition for Administration is allowed the court appoints an Administrator.

If someone dies intestate in England and Wales there is a complex matrix of who gets the estate, designed to satisfy the probable wishes of the deceased. Basically, if you are married your spouse gets the first big chunk with the rest going to your children if you have any. If you are not married it will be divided equally among your children, if you have no children, then your parents, if no parents, your siblings. The list goes on until you have run out of potential relatives. If no relatives can be traced whatsoever then the estate will pass to the Crown.
