[WSBAPT] trust situs

[Dewey Weddle]

Esteemed Colleagues,

 

I have a client who moved here from out of state.  While a resident of the other state, he created a Revocable Living Trust.  Now he is wondering whether he should formally change the situs of the Trust to Washington.  I have looked at the statute having to do with situs, and it appears that, provided that one or more of several criteria are met, a trust can be registered here in Washington by filing a form similar to the one described in the statute. 

 

Is there any advantage or disadvantage in doing this immediately?  Any harm in waiting?   

 

Best regards to all,

 

Dewey
