``Most people would acknowledge that estate planning is important. After all, dying without a will is not a nice thing to do to your family. Termed dying "intestate," when someone dies without a will, it's the state that decides how that person's assets are distributed, and it can take years before everything gets resolved. No one could want that to happen to whatever they own after they're gone.

And yet, survey after survey has shown that at least half of American adults will pass away without a will. In 2007, a study conducted by Harris Interactive®for Martindale-Hubbell® found that, looking back three years, 55% of all adult Americans did not have a will. And perhaps even more shockingly, a 2012 survey by legal services Website, RocketLawyer.com, found that 50 percent of Americans with children don't have a will.''
