This option is often preferred as they know you and your circumstances and have your best interests in mind. Since the role of an estate trustee can be very demanding, you should be sure that the person is willing and capable of carrying out the responsibilities of executor. In addition to choosing a primary Estate Trustee, you should also select an alternate in the event your first choice predeceases you or is unable or unwilling to act when the time comes. Alternatively, a corporate or professional executor may be preferred where family and friends lack knowledge of estate administration, financial responsibility, or the time to administer an estate. A professional executor may be a lawyer or accountant with the expertise, experience and sensitivity needed for estate settlement and administration intricacies. A corporate executor such as a trust company may be desirable where the estate is large or complex, a conflict within the family is likely, or if a long-term commitment is involved, such as administering a trust for children or a disabled beneficiary.
