An estate executor (also known as a personal representative, administrator, or trustee) is someone legally responsible for settling a deceased person's estate (see general statistics on estate settlement). Serving as an estate executor is considered by many to be an unspoken rite of financial passage: a significant undertaking, but a key step in life.
Whether it's your first time serving as an executor, or you're a professional estate attorney, EstateExec online software can help you organize the process and communicate with everyone involved.
