Vancouver, Wash. – The Clark County Law Library announced this week that it has updated its self-help form kits for probate proceedings. The kits are part of a series of form kits that include instructions on various court filings.

There are two kits for probate filings:

  • Probate Without Will (Intestate) The kit includes forms and instructions to open and close a simple solvent estate in Washington when the person who died did not have a will. 
  • Probate With Will (Testate) The kit includes forms and instructions to open and close a simple solvent estate in Washington when the person who died had a will.

The kits do not cover administration of the estate, or situations where an heir is a minor or incapacitated individual.

“The kits cost $30 which includes tax, we are selling them by mail while our office is closed,” said Law Librarian Maria Sosnowski. “Full cost is $42 including the kit, shipping and handling, credit card fee, and sales tax.”
