In will if one of beneficiaries has deceased does his spouse collect inheritance?

In general, if a beneficiary of a will has deceased, their share typically does not go directly to their spouse unless the will specifically states so. Instead, the deceased beneficiary's share may pass to their heirs or be distributed according to the laws of intestacy if there is no provision in the will. It's essential to consult the specific terms of the will and applicable state laws to determine the correct distribution.
