Attention Coffee Room Readers: This is America. If you want to follow halacha, you can, but the government won’t do it for you. If you leave a will, it will be respected, leaving you the opportunity to dispose of your property in accordance with halacha. If you don’t leave a will, your property will pass in accordance with the state laws of your domicile. If you live in New York and leave a spouse and more than one child, spouse gets one-third, children split the balance. May Hashem give you long life.
