<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m currently working on my first probate that includes a minor beneficiary. Minor is 17 years old and sole beneficiary of a monetarily large estate. Decedent was minor’s biological father, who had previously divorced minor’s biological
mother. The mother has full custody of the minor. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The plan is to appoint a GAL for minor until she reaches majority. Does anyone have a sample motion and order for appointment of a GAL for minor in an estate? I began going off of an older example I was given, but soon learned the RCWs
cited were recently amended and now I’m slugging my way through them and would like to not re-invent the wheel.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks in advance! <o:p></o:p></p>
