You're right, I have no knowledge of the problems because in the cases I have been involved with, there hasn't been any. People I've known just leave things to their next of kin. As I said, if your wishes are complicated or deviate from the norm, then it's commonsense to state things clearly in writing. The one properly drawn up will I have experience of turned out to be a dog's dinner, designed to create a smokescreen so that the solicitors who drew it up could further line their pockets.
So, how would you say a "properly" drwan up will for a family man differs from the intestacy rules, assuming he has no secret liaisons and doesn't favour one of his offspring above the other? I conclude from the hostility of your response that you are either a solicitor, or someone who has paid one rather a lot of money. My experience of all this is that there are always people in suits hovering near large sums of money and most of them are con artists.
