FAQ
If you have a spouse but no descendants, your spouse will receive your assets. For those who are married and have descendants with their spouse, the spouse will inherit everything. For people with a spouse and children from another partnership, the spouse will inherit half of all separate property.
With or without a will, the transfer of property after death requires going to probate court. However, this can be bypassed entirely if the deceased has a valid trust in effect.
If someone dies without a will, their estate assets will pass by intestate succession. Intestate succession means that any part of the estate not covered by the decedent's will goes to the decedent's spouse and/or other heirs under Arizona law. (The decedent is the person who died.)
Power of attorney is only valid when the principal is still alive. After an individual passes, their estate representative or executor will be responsible for legal decision-making and distributing property to heirs. If the decedent failed to appoint an executor, the court will appoint one for them.

However, if there is no will or the will is contested by potential heirs or creditors, the process can become lengthy due to court hearings and legal challenges. On average, probate in Arizona takes between six months to a year for an uncontested estate.
Therefore, the estate will go to their next of kin starting with their children. If there are no children, then parents and siblings would be next. If there are no surviving parents or siblings, the probate court would track down more extended family, such as nieces and nephews, grandparents, grandchildren, and so on.
If you die with no surviving spouse, descendants or parents, your siblings will inherit all of your estate. If you die with no surviving spouse, descendants, parents or siblings, then your nieces and nephews will inherit all of your estate.
