Hello list mates,

Husband passed away in Oregon.  Husband had an interest in a family LLC in Washington state that was in his name only.  Husband and Wife had a Living Trust in Oregon in which everything owned by the husband went to the Wife when he passed away.  The LLC interest was in the Living Trust.

We need to now transfer Husband's interest in the LLC to the Wife.  We need to do an Assignment of Interest, however, is the Assignment of Interest from the wife as Trustee of the Living Trust to herself or from the managing member of the LLC to the wife?

The LLC operating agreement is silent on assignment of interests (transferring of interest) when a member dies.  When a member dies, their interest does not automatically go to their spouse in the LLC operating agreement.

Thank you!
