Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Washington
Accounting and Fees
Can I request a full accounting of monies paid by the
Personal Representative regarding the estate. The
estate is closed and I have signed a Receipt and
Release including a waiver of notice of Declaration of
Completion. (but it has not been 30 days yet) I have
paid the personal representatives fee and the attorney's
fees. I was told they would not close the estate until
money was paid to them. The personal representaive
had access to estate funds and I would like to know
how the money was spent. I would also like a full
accounting of what the attorney charged me for . This
was the personal representative's attorney.

Re: Accounting and Fees
Sorry, but your question is a bit confusing ... you say you paid the personal rep? That is not the norm. Will need more detail to give you a good answer.
