Hi Jennifer,

Just ask them to transfer the will to Snohomish, I think there might be a
small fee, but that is how we have done it.

Subject: [WSBAPT] Probate Move Counties?

Good Afternoon,

I have a case that was from a decedent in the 1980s, no one in the family
knew of a Will, so probate was opened and administrator appointed in
Snohomish County. However, during a recent move, it was discovered that a
Will had been filed in King County in the 1980s but closed due to
inactivity. 

Should I reopen the King County probate, and ask to move to Snohomish
County? Or, just admit a certified copy of the Will and Probate from King
County in Snohomish ? 

Thanks for any insights.
