[WSBAPT] creditor claim

[Krista MacLaren]

Hi Mates,

I have a client for whom I have done (first time ever) a NonProbate Notice to Creditors.  Her husband died with a fair bit of debt.  They did not own a home.  All of their property was separate via separate property agreement, but he gave her “everything" via his will.  Some of the major creditors have filed claims.  I am thinking I need to tell my client she has to pay the debt from the small pot of money available from a brokerage account he had.  She may wind up with nothing.  Am I missing anything?

Thank you!
