In these circumstances, you should contact the creditor’s attorney and ask to allow the filing of the original Will, filing an amended petition for testacy and appointing the niece as the PR as provided in the Will.  Should be able to stipulate and obtain an Order.  See RCW 11.28.150.

RCW 11.28.150<http://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=11.28.150>
Revocation of letters by discovery of will.
If after letters of administration are granted a will of the deceased be found and probate thereof be granted, the letters shall be revoked and letters testamentary or of administration with the will annexed, shall be granted.

Subject: [WSBAPT] Transferring probate administration from creditor to beneficiary

Good afternoon,

Decedent's uncle passed away last year. Creditor opened probate to collect on decedent's final medical bill. We want to name our client as PR. She has the original will and is the only heir.

What are the next steps? Can we get the creditor to stipulate to our client being the PR and let the creditor know we will handle the creditor claim process, etc.? There is a hearing set for July 22.

Sincerely,

Suzanne Lieberman
