No one likes to think about death.
Most people do not have a will, and only make one when a loved one dies or they face a life crisis.
A lot of people assume that their loved ones will automatically inherit their money and property, without realising that other "less loved" ones may also inherit, and without being able to tailor the proposed inheritance to their loved one's needs.
Often people do not realise that if they have not married their partner, their partner will get nothing, or that step children will not benefit from their estate.
