Subject: [WSBAPT] Any way to avoid Probate
Good afternoon,
PC is the successor trustee and named executor for decedent's pour over will. PC originally filed Will with court believing that the Trust document provided all the authority needed to manage decedent's estate.
Apparently there are bank accounts that were not addressed by the Trust and the bank is refusing to give PC access to the accounts without letters testamentary.
(I have not seen any of the documents yet.)
Is there any way for PC to avoid having to open probate in this circumstance? Apparently the accounts contain a significant amount of money.
Sincerely,
G. (Gus) Benjamin Lindsey III
