[WSBAPT] Finding Remote Heirs

[James Jackson]

I notified the court the last time I dealt with that issue, and asked
for authority to hire an heir search company.

 

We actually found a half niece and nephew.

Listmates,

 

I have my first probate case where there are no lineal heirs, no living
parents and the decedent was an only child, so no surviving issue of the
parents.  Decedent has a will and everything is going to charity.  I'm
wondering what others with more experience usually do to track down the
more remote heirs to give them the statutory notice of the probate?  

 

Thanks in advance for your response. 

 

Kristina
