[WSBAPT] Trust Notice / Qualified Beneficiary

[Kristi L. Richards]

When sending notice of existence of a trust that terminates by giving all assets to living children outright and free of trust at the death of the original trustor, does everyone include the contingent beneficiaries as recipients of the notice of existence of trust?

RCW 11.98.072(1) requires the trustee to keep all "qualified beneficiaries" of a trust reasonably informed regarding the administration of the trust.   The definitions in RCW 11.98.002 appear to include more than just the current beneficiaries/children.
