Re: Access to Parent's Will
Absolutely. The will is required by law to be filed even if there is no probate. Sounds like you need a lawyer.
Title 11 RCW is the probate section of the law. http://www.leg.wa.gov/pub/rcw/title_11/
Chapter 11.20 RCW, Custody, proof, and probate of wills, is the specific chapter you should find of interest.
