[WSBAPT] Pre-Court Appointment PR Fees

[Paul Neumiller]

Listees.  Happy Friday.  After spending some time on FastCase, I have not found my answer and pursuing past listserv posts.  So RCW 11.48.210 says a PR "shall be allowed such compensation for his or her services as the court shall deem just and reasonable."



So when does the "compensation" begin?  My client travelled to town to see dying parent and then had to make funeral arrangements, etc. and make initial arrangements to clean decedent's property up.  All this was done prior to client's visit to me and client's ultimate appointment as PR.  Is any of this time compensated for?  How about client's time meeting with me but prior to the date the judge signs the order and the clerk prepares the Letters?
