What about in the USA? Who turns up at the will reading to represent the WT?
In my case no one. I was legally and ethically bound to inform WT of the death and they had a copy of the will. Both parents had stipulated that everything would go to the surviving spouse. So everything went to my father when my mom died. When he died I was working at having him transfer his financial holdings into joint accounts with me listed as joint owner. He died before I could get the final one in a joint account. Otherwise at his death they all became mine legally and ethically. Sadly the one I was not able to get completed before he died netted WT a tidy high six figure payout, for which their only response was, "Is that all there is? Can we expect more?" I was able to truthfully tell them, "NO!!" as the rest was mine, and I will never give WT one thin dime!
