<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Garamond",serif">Hate to be a naysayer, but tossing in my 2 cents: I'm not a fan of double probates. I've heard one title officer vent about the title issues that can result from this approach,
and my local court (Island County) has also expressed concerns about whether statutory authority for this approach exists. The only real benefit seems to be cost savings to the client, and the potential hurdles in many cases are likely to outweigh this single
pro. Issues also arise at the time of obtaining an EIN for the estate, issues with opening estate bank accounts, issues with filing tax returns, etc. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

simply not to do it anymore. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Husband died in 2018. No will was located, no probate opened. Wife died recently. Both wills have since been located. Husband's will directed that a Credit Shelter Trust be created,
which obviously wasn't done. Looks like Husband did not have a taxable estate at the time of his death. Both wills name Son as PR.<o:p></o:p></p>
