A will should provide clear instructions on how you would like the assets in your estate to be distributed after you pass away.

You could choose to leave your property in shares, or you could choose to list specific beneficiaries as recipients of specific types of property.

Estate planning, in this sense, gives you control over the distribution of your assets.
