Have you considered a demand
letter?
A demand letter demands that the recipient
satisfy a legal duty, such as performing a contract
term, returning possession of an animal or
compensating you for the death of your animal
companion. It gives the other party the opportunity
to cure a problem without resorting to a legal
action. Sometimes, a demand letter is even
required prior to filing a lawsuit. Lorrie Elliott
writes demand letters on a FLAT FEE basis.
Call or email her to write
a demand letter for you.
PET TRUSTS
Lorrie has assisted numerous clients who have
encountered difficulties because a relative or
friend neglected to create a pet trust for their
beloved animal companion. The lack of a pet trust
may cause anguish for those left to care for the
animal. It also may result in the abandonment of an
animal after the death of their person. Historically
animals were treated as property. As property, they
could not be the beneficiary of a will or trust.
That has changed. Washington now allows a trust to
be established for the benefit of a pet. Certain
requirements must be followed for the trust to be
effective. Contact Ms. Elliott if you would like to
have a trust drafted to benefit your companion
animals or if you have questions about pet trusts.
She will prepare a standard pet trust for you for a
FLAT FEE.
