I’ve got an issue I’m trying to figure out.
My wife and I have a large estate consisting of several houses and other investments that would have to be liquidated when we pass.
My issue is around executors. We don’t have any children or close relatives we would trust to be an executor for our estate and we wouldn’t want to burden any of our friends as liquidating our estate would take a lot of time.
Today - our will appoints a law firm we have worked with in the past to act on our behalf but I would expect those costs would be very high and I want to consider other options as we are in the process of redoing our will.
Is there any other options any of you have dealt with that you would recommend that can act as our executors instead of a pricey law firm in our situation?
Are there any firms out there that are dedicated and specialize in being executors for situations like this. If so how do they work and how do they charge?
Any other ideas?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
