Being named by a loved one as an Executor or Trustee of their estate is a great honor, but it can also be a daunting responsibility. Here’s a great article that I came across that was put out by the American Bar Association that does a really nice job of explaining not only the different terminology that you’re likely to encounter when serving as an Executor or Trustee, but also the many tasks and fiduciary responsibilities that you will have as well.
Take a look, I think you’ll find the article to be extremely helpful and informative as you begin your journey through the probate estate and trust administration process.
