An Australian Executor Trustees (AET) Estate Planning Specialist will help you make the right choice when appointing an Executor by explaining all the options available.

The decision depends upon your own individual needs and circumstances.

In some cases the best solution will be to appoint trusted relatives and or friends as Executor(s). Alternatively, it may be best to appoint a professional Executor like AET. Here are some points to consider:

Will appointing trusted family or friend(s) as Executor(s)
This may appeal if:

• You wish the responsibility for the administration of your estate to rest with trusted family or friend(s) who are willing to take on the role
• You have less complex affairs, and stable family relationships

Will appointing AET as Executor
This may appeal if:

• You do not wish to burden your heirs with the sometimes onerous task of acting as Executor
• You have complex family arrangements (such as second marriage, or family dispute) and wish to appoint an impartial, independent Executor
• You have no immediate family or friends whom you wish to appoint as Executor
