What happens if I don't have a will

State laws deal uniformly with all instance of death without a Will.
No considerations are made for the special needs of any individual or family.
Your money and possessions will be distributed according to a formula fixed by law, which means that your spouse may have to share assets with other family members whom you may not have named in a Will.
Dying without a Will could also lead to your minor children being placed in the care of a guardian appointed by the court, not necessarily the person(s) that you would have chosen.
Taxes and other expenses may be much more.
