Washington’s Trust and Estate Dispute Resolution Act (TEDRA) is one of the most powerful tools available for efficiently resolving conflicts in probate, Trust, and Estate matters. Instead of forcing families into lengthy and expensive court battles, TEDRA allows interested parties to use private agreements, mediation, and streamlined court procedures to settle almost any issue — from interpreting a Will to resolving fiduciary disputes to modifying a Trust. The result is a flexible, collaborative framework that can save time, reduce costs, and preserve family relationships while still providing the court oversight needed for finality and enforceability. For anyone administering an estate or navigating a Trust issue in Washington, understanding TEDRA can open the door to faster, smarter, and more peaceful resolutions.
