[WSBAPT] long term care insurance claims

[Karin Treadwell]

Does anyone have referrals to attorneys handling long term care insurance claims/disputes?

I recall hearing a great presentation on the topic at a CLE in the past year or so, but I can’t remember the presenter’s name?

Any ideas welcome!

Correct—No need to publish Notice to Creditors is more than 2 years has passed since date of death.

Actually, I wouldn’t publish if 20 months have passed, since publishing within the last 4 months would just introduce a potential for confusion on claims filed within the 4 months but after 2 years.

Sincerely,

Eric

Listmates - I feel like I've seen the answer to this question before on the listserve but can't locate it.  Decedent died intestate in March 2020, but no actions were taken to probate his estate.  All debts were joint and satisfied by the surviving spouse.  For reasons related to unresolved real property interests, a probate is now deemed necessary.  Am I reading RCW 11.40.051(1)(c) correctly that because two years have passed since the decedent's death, any creditor claims not otherwise barred by a statute of limitations are also barred?  Does that mean publication of Notice to Creditors in a newspaper of record (and its expense) is unnecessary?

Thanks
Tom
