[WSBAPT] Bank requires both co-PRs on account

[Melinda]

Thank you Setareh. I ended up writing a letter saying "...as you no doubt already know, the law in Washington is...  hope it prompted just a bit of guilt but I doubt it. They made my client incur entirely unnecessary legal fees.  Client got the funds from decedents account and then took them elsewhere to open estate account.

However, I would highly recommend opening the estate account at a regular bank if it's a possibility for your clients. BOA in Bothell is awesome!
