Quick answer: No, Wyoming co-personal representatives don't each collect a separate full statutory fee. W.S. § 2-7-805(b) is explicit about this — unusually so for this cluster: only one total fee for ordinary services is allowed per estate, and the court apportions it among everyone who served, following their own agreement first, or its own sense of what's fair and just if they have none. Estimate the underlying tiered schedule first with the Wyoming executor fee calculator.
The rule, in the statute's own words
Their own agreement comes first
The statute gives co-personal representatives real control: if they agree among themselves on how to divide the single total fee, the court follows that agreement. Only when there's no agreement does the court step in and impose its own sense of what's fair and just — presumably weighing what each person actually did, though the statute doesn't spell out specific factors for that determination the way it does for the schedule itself.
Successor personal representatives, same rule
The identical rule applies to multiple attorneys
Worked example
Two siblings serve as co-personal representatives of a Wyoming estate with a $500,000 probate estate, producing a $10,350 total fee under W.S. § 2-7-803.
| Co-personal representative | Share of work | Illustrative apportionment |
|---|---|---|
| Sibling A (primary administrator) | 80% | $8,280 |
| Sibling B (occasional support) | 20% | $2,070 |
Illustrative only — the 80/20 split shown reflects an agreement the siblings might reach themselves; absent agreement, the court would apportion the same $10,350 total as it deems fair and just.
