If husband dies without a will is wife entitled to the estate?
This depends on the particular state that you live in. This is called the law of intestate succession, and a person that dies without a will is said to have died intestate. It is strictly a matter of state law. However, in virtually all of the states, if the spouse dies without a will, the wife is entitled to a significant portion of the estate, and the rest is then distributed to the children or the siblings, as the case may be.

If your father died in 1979 without a will and your mother is still alive and you are the only child who gets what?
Your state laws will have determined the "intestate succession" of your father's estate, absent a will, meaning the law divided the property. Some states give the entire estate to the surviving spouse; others divide it with the children, meaning the minor children may have received half the father's estate "in trust". Look up your state "intestate succession" and visit the courthouse where the father's estate was probated in 1979 to see how it was distributed. If it wasn't properly probated, you will need an attorney to figure out what rights you may have.

What are advantage of succession planning?
Succession planning helps business owners protect their personal and financial interests. Business owners look to exit their companies in a way that they are able to meet their financial, personal and estate planning goals once they leave. Besides, succession planning prepares the next generation of leaders, who fill up key positions when they become vacant. Many business owners hire attorneys who work with their team of advisors to develop an efficient and comprehensive succession plan.
