Independent executor and trustee

TAKING CARE OF YOUR ESTATE

Did you know you can appoint a solicitor as executor and trustee of your will?

It’s not always practical to appoint a relative as executor of your estate. They’re likely to find it a challenging and time consuming task, while dealing with your passing.

Our solicitors have acted in this role for many clients. We’re able to ensure your wishes are carried out in accordance with your will or the trust deed.

Our responsibilities in administering an estate may include:

  • Immediate arrangements – Locating and interpreting the original will, and arranging the funeral
  • Administration duties – Ensuring estate debts are paid and lodging documents
  • Supporting beneficiaries – Collecting estate assets and transferring assets in accordance with the will or trust deed
