A Will states who you want to get what.  This may or may not be different from your state's laws of inheritance.  If you have a small estate (as your state law defines it), it will be cheaper to settle it without a Will, using a Small Estate Affidavit.  If not, it will cost more as the court will have to determine who your heirs are.

This is general information. It cannot substitute for a personal consultation with an attorney. It is not intended to be legal advice or imply an attorney-client relationship.
