Executor Duties Explained

Have you been named as an Executor in a Will? If so, read on to find out what that really means.

Being an executor is an important responsibility.

You may need to:

  • Value the estate
  • Apply for probate
  • Pay debts and taxes
  • Manage property sales
  • Distribute inheritance correctly

The process can take months and mistakes can lead to personal liability.
