State law governs the distribution of your estate if you do not have a will or trust in place. Did you know that your spouse may receive only 1/3 of your estate when your pass away? Intestacy is the process governing the distribution of you estate should you pass away without a will or trust. In Oklahoma, the default rule for a family (with no step-children), is that only 1/3 of your estate will pass to your spouse if you unexpectedly pass away; the rest will pass to your children.
