That is fascinating; I could see a creditor being able to contest for 2 years but have not heard the information below – will be curious to see responses.

Subject: [WSBAPT] Can an Heir Contest a TODD?

A title company just told me that a TODD can be contested by an heir not named as a beneficiary for up to two years after the Grantor's death.

RCW 64.80 says nothing like this. Does anyone know if a TODD can be disputed by an heir not named as beneficiary?
