[WSBAPT] intestate estate question

[Shannon Jones]

Listmates, I represent the PR of two estates -- spouses who died intestate, simultaneous deaths, 50 years married. Intestate heirs to husband's estate are his siblings. Intestate heirs to wife's estate are her siblings. Most assets are jointly which will split ½ to husband's estate and ½ to wife's. But there are some accounts wife held in her name only (not her separate property). Also, husband had a large life insurance policy which was payable only to his "estate." Do the wife's accounts in her name only distribute only to her intestate heirs? Does the husband's life insurance distribute only to his intestate heirs? I think I have this figured out but I'm not sure I'm correct - Shannon
