Question, if you die without a will in Alberta does everything automatically transfer to your wife? I am thinking about a situation without children or a prenup where everything is in both names anyway.
I always hear that you should have a will, but have put it off with the intention of everything transferring between us and I don't really care what happens if we both die. If we both die would the families have to fight over things or is the default to split things between our respective estates and let them fight over the distribution of each half?
If this is stepping over the line of asking for free advice, feel free to let me know that I should just see a lawyer and get it done right.
