The Rules of Intestacy Guide & Action Plan

When someone dies without a will, most families assume the estate will be divided fairly between those who loved them. The reality is very different. The Rules of Intestacy are a strict legal hierarchy — and they don't care about relationships, intentions, or who the deceased would have chosen. Unmarried partners receive nothing regardless of how long they were together. Stepchildren are excluded unless formally adopted. Close friends have no legal standing whatsoever. This nine-page guide explains exactly who is legally entitled to inherit, in what order, and what happens when the hierarchy produces an outcome the family didn't expect. More importantly it gives you a step-by-step action plan for navigating the process — what to do first, which decisions need a solicitor, and how to protect the estate while everything is resolved. If there is no will, this is the guide you need before you do anything else.
