[Heather deVrieze]

I always send “first class postage prepaid”. No reason to send certified.

Subject: [WSBAPT] Notice of Probate Closing Returned

I would appreciate any collective knowledge on my next step.  I closed a probate and sent certified mail notice to the beneficiary of the closing to start the 30 day objection clock.  However, the beneficiary did not sign for the letter and it was returned.

#1 - is certification over-kill so just resend regular first-class?
#2 - if certified is the better method, do I need to hire someone to personally serve now that it was not picked up?

Other thoughts on what is normal practice when sending notice would be appreciated.

Thanks,
