Most people know they should have a will, but over half of Americans never get around to it. In this episode, Nick breaks down what really happens when someone passes away without one, and the difficult complications that follow. He also shares guidance for those trying to help aging parents who refuse to finalize their wills and explains how his firm helps families navigate these complex situations.
