At the bottom of each of our newsletter and podcast entries online, we ask a survey question. The current one asks what happens if an Arizona resident dies without a will. We offer five options; we were surprised that less than 1/3 of our readers got the answer right. Our survey says ... that there's lots of confusion about the rules of intestate succession. The most commonly chosen (and wrong) answer indicates that lots of our readers are confused about whether a will can help you avoid probate (spoiler alert: no).
