Problem

Intestacy

Nature:

Dying without leaving a will can be a disaster for women whose husband dies without making a will to protect her interests. Many people assume that all they own will automatically go to their spouses. This is not necessarily the case. When a person dies intestate brothers, sisters and even cousins may have a claim on what he owned.
