Mother, if you mean wife of the deceased husband.
His wife is his next of kin for legal purposes.
The son.
If you are speaking of the relative or relatives entitled to share in your property if you die intestate (without a will) then if you are unmarried your parents are your next of kin. If they were deceased then your sister would be your next of kin. In another sense they are all your next of kin. See related question link.
Without a will of intent all inheritance will go to the next of kin. The order of that is wife, father/mother, son and daughter.
Yes. Your "estranged wife" is still your legal spouse.
The step son has no relationship to the aunt. So technically the niece would be the next of kin.
Yes. Your "estranged wife" is still your legal spouse.
I think you meant "Next of Kin" which means the nearest survivor to the person who has died. IN a family with a husband wife and two children, if the Husband dies, the wife is Next of Kin. If both parents died, say in a car crash, then the children are next of kin to them. Hope this helps!
If your wife dies, chances are you are going to hear about it, as the next of kin.
next of kin would be eldest child
If the girlfriend can be considered his common-law wife and the state where they reside recognizes the validity of such a marriage, she can claim next of kin.
