Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Washington
I am helping an individual in washington state for his wife recently passed away and he is essentially looking for a deed on his home to represent only his name, as he is the only individual alive. I am confused if he needs to go through probate court or if it is as simple as presenting a death certificate and other documents to show proof of some kind. Thanks

Washington's simplified probate procedure for small estates provides procedures for situations such as this. A title insurance company can also answer questions as to what they would require to insure title on a sale of the property under these circumstances.
