Washington Estate Law guides

All law guides →

Plain-English guides to the law. General information, not legal advice.

Asset Protection Planning in Washington

Washington asset protection involves layering — exemption planning, business entities, retirement accounts, and (for some) Domestic Asset Protection Trusts (DAPTs) in DAPT-friendly states.

Blended Family Estate Planning in Washington

Washington blended families need careful estate planning to avoid disinheriting biological children when surviving spouse remarries — QTIP trusts, life insurance, and specific structures address the conflict.

Business Succession Planning in Washington

Washington business succession requires coordinated estate + business planning — buy-sell agreements, life insurance funding, key-person insurance, and gradual transition plans. Without it, families lose businesses to taxes, disputes, or chaos.

Charitable Trusts in Washington

Washington charitable trusts combine philanthropy with tax planning. Charitable Remainder Trusts (CRTs) and Charitable Lead Trusts (CLTs) provide income / estate / gift tax benefits.

Digital-Asset Estate Planning in Washington

Washington digital-asset planning is governed by RUFADAA (adopted in 48 states) — fiduciaries can access digital accounts only if user explicitly consented. Without planning, families lose access to email, photos, crypto, and online accounts.

Spouse's Elective Share in Washington

Washington elective share: Community property state — surviving spouse owns 1/2 of community.

Estate-Tax Planning in Washington

Washington estates may face federal estate tax (40% above ~$13.99M / individual in 2025) plus state estate or inheritance tax — most estates use lifetime gifting + trusts to minimize tax.

Guardianship and Conservatorship in Washington

Washington guardianship cases — for minors, incapacitated adults, or both — are heard in Superior Court (uses "guardian" for minors; "guardian / conservator" for adults under updated UGA). Process requires petition, evaluation, hearing, ongoing reporting.

Healthcare Directives in Washington

Washington healthcare directives: Healthcare Directive (Living Will) + Healthcare POA + POLST.

Heirs' Property in Washington

Washington heirs' property — land passed without a will or proper estate planning, owned by multiple heirs as tenants-in-common — has caused significant land loss in Black + low-income families. UPHPA partition reform helps.

Intestate Succession in Washington: What Happens If You Die Without a Will

If you die in Washington without a will, the state's intestate succession law decides who gets what — not you. Spouse takes ALL community property and 1/2 of separate property if there are kids; children share the other 1/2 of separate property.

Living Trusts in Washington

A revocable living trust avoids probate, maintains privacy, and lets you control how your assets pass at death. Estates over $100K personal property typically benefit most.
