Wisconsin Intestacy Calculator TM
See the Wisconsin intestate succession statutes interpreted. This is the only program that calculates the next of kin and the dollar amount given to each intestate heir according to Wisconsin's intestacy laws. (Chapter 852, Intestate Succession) You can also read selected portions of the state intestate laws or open the state government sponsored legal site HERE.
Enter a marital property value and answer the marital status question. Continue answering questions until the answer is automatically shown. (Keep trying until you learn when the children of aunts and uncles (first cousins) are entitled to a portion of the estate or when the estate escheats.) If you aren't married simply enter a "0" and begin with the separate property value. (See: Marital Property Division)
