  2. Disputes over wills, especially in blended families, are common, highlighting the importance of proactive engagement with clients.

  3. Women often inherit from both parents and partners, making understanding their unique circumstances essential for tailored advice.

  4. The role of emotions in financial discussions is critical; advisers should foster trust and open communication in sensitive matters.
