Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in District of Columbia
Can you find out if you are in someone's will if they are still alive? My grandmother is 96 and has dementia. She is very hard to talk to you and really doesn't even remember who you are, so asking her is not an option. We were told all the grandchildren were in her will. We live in Nevada and she lives in Washington DC.

You could ask the person who is assisting her with her affairs (if there is such a person). Otherwise, the answer would likely be no, you cannot.

You can get a copy of the will from the court once it is filed after her death. I guess you'll just have to wait.
