Executors

We provide specialist legal advice on the appointment and duties of executors (marmessors): trusted people appointed by the testator to ensure that their wishes are faithfully carried out after their death.

We can help you with:

• Advice on whether it is advisable to appoint an executor in your will.
• Drafting will clauses that define the executor’s duties and powers.
• Legal support for executors in carrying out their duties.
• Resolving disputes arising from the executor’s actions or between heirs.
• Coordination with the heirs to ensure the testator’s wishes are fulfilled.

Appointing an executor is an effective way to ensure that the estate is administered in an orderly and faithful manner. It can be key to managing the assets, ensuring they are properly distributed, dealing with practical or legal issues and minimising disputes between heirs or legatees.
