Will Beneficiary Rights Wisconsin

Summary

As a will beneficiary in Wisconsin, you have the right to access the will. A Power of Attorney (POA) ends upon the death of the principal. If your aunt, who had POA, refuses to provide necessary documents or life insurance policies, you can contact the probate court or hire an attorney for assistance. Always consult with a local attorney for advice tailored to your specific situation.
