According to IC 36-2-14-10, the next of kin is identified in a hierarchical order as follows: Spouse. Children over the age of 18. Parents.
Specifically, the Indiana intestate succession laws will distributed your estate as follows: Survived by spouse only spouse receives the entire estate. Survived by descendants only descendants split the entire estate.
If you die without leaving a valid will, your estate will devolve according to the Intestate Succession Act, 1987 (Act 81 of 1987). This means that your estate will be divided amongst your surviving spouse, children, parents or siblings according to a set formula. Find out more: intestate succession.
The children of the person who has died inherit the whole estate. This applies however much the estate is worth. If there are 2 or more children, the estate will be divided equally between them.
If there is no Last Will and Testament, then any one of the heirs usually opens the probate estate with the local court. The probate code in Indiana states who are the heirs. For example, if a surviving parent dies, then the children of the deceased will share equally in the estate.
