In the event of a person’s death, an executor (personal representative) or trustee is responsible for managing and settling their estate. However, many may ask: what is the difference between a trustee vs. executor?

An executor is named in the deceased’s will and is responsible for carrying out the deceased's wishes, including distributing assets and paying debts. A trustee is responsible for administering a trust.  When an individual chose to do trust planning rather than will planning.

Having experienced legal professionals as your executor or administrator ensures your estates are settled efficiently and aligned with your estate plan. Navigating estate probate is a complex legal and financial process, and our trustee and executor services can help you protect your legacy and your beneficiaries’ financial future.
