Short answer
Execution of a will may be assigned to an appropriate person under statutory conditions. The executor carries out dispositions and protects the estate; they cannot freely change beneficiaries or shares.
Practical example
The testator wants a trusted person to preserve property while heirs arrange documents. Powers and any remuneration should be defined beforehand.
What to do
Choose someone willing to act and specify duties, reporting and expenses. Consider the possibility of resignation and replacement.
Points to consider
Appointing an executor does not remove heirs’ lawful rights or compulsory-share rules.
