[WSBAPT] Another creditor claims question

[Suzanne Lieberman]

Happy Friday, all-

We did a lack of probate affidavit for a client's husband in 2019. Client
passed away in late 2020. The administrator of her estate, her caregiver -
also our client - wants to know about his responsibility to pay the debts
of the husband, who died intestate. Probate was never opened for the
husband, nor abbreviated creditor claim period established. They must have
been unknown debts.

Our client would need to pay (from the wife's estate) any valid claims
submitted until the 2-year period ends (March 9, 2021), correct?

Sincerely,

Suzanne Lieberman
