Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Iowa
If a person is named in a will, even if it states they are to get nothing, is there a legal obligation
that any person named in a will should get a copy of the will? Is a federal or state statute?
They deceased person resided in the state of Iowa.
Thank you,
Rida

If the estate is probated, the will is going to be part of the court file, but there is no requirement that a copy be sent to everyone mentioned by name in the will.
