Don't Die Without a Will
Dying intestate (without a will) means the law decides who gets your assets - not you. De facto partners may receive nothing if the relationship isn't recognized. Children from previous relationships may miss out. A simple will costs less than a week's groceries but provides peace of mind for your family.
