"We are seeing a rise in unequal wills, and usually for good reasons where one sibling may be financially better off than the other or has had more support during their lifetime," Taylor said.
It may seem unfair to leave different amounts - and Taylor has data that shows slightly less than half of Britons think it's justified - but that doesn't mean parents don't have valid reasons.
"I'd encourage you to have open discussions with your children about your plans, to help manage expectations and reduce the likelihood of conflict," Taylor said.
It's often the case on farms, Taylor said, that one child will be more active in the business and therefore inherit a greater share.
In what sounds like a plot straight out of Succession, there is a rise in parents leaving more in their will for one child than another.
