[WSBAPT] Attorney as Alternate PR?

[Karl Flaccus]

I almost never do this, but I have on rare occasions where the person is stuck, in that they don’t have family, or they don’t want to use an agency or company.  I have had been appointed PR in these rare circumstances by commissioners in Seattle when starting the probate.

Subject: [WSBAPT] Attorney as Alternate PR?

Listmates,

Client has a question as to whether an attorney may be listed as the alternate personal representative in her will.  I’ve never run into this question.  Off the top of my head, I don’t see a problem with it.  Is there a prohibition I’m not aware of?

Thanks in advance,
