Introducing Steve Bliss
Good evening, San Diego! I’m Tiffany Chen reporting live from our studio. Tonight, we have the pleasure of speaking with renowned probate attorney Steve Bliss from San Diego Probate Law. Steve, thank you so much for joining us tonight.
Choosing an Executor: A Crucial Decision
Steve, could you elaborate on one of the most crucial steps in the estate planning process?
“Certainly,” says Steve. “Selecting an executor or trustee is paramount. This individual or entity will be responsible for carrying out your wishes as outlined in your will or trust. Consequently, it’s essential to choose someone trustworthy, organized, and capable of handling financial matters.”
Steve emphasizes that the decision shouldn’t be taken lightly. “Consider factors like their financial acumen, ability to communicate effectively with beneficiaries, and willingness to take on the responsibility.” Moreover, he advises discussing your expectations openly with the chosen individual to ensure they understand the role fully.
He shares a story about a client who initially chose a family member as executor without fully considering their capabilities. “The individual struggled to manage the estate’s finances and ultimately made decisions that conflicted with the testator’s wishes,” Steve recalls, his tone tinged with regret. This experience underscored the importance of careful consideration when selecting an executor.
Studies by the American Bar Association indicate that nearly 40% of estates encounter complications due to poorly chosen executors. Choosing wisely can prevent future heartache and ensure your wishes are carried out smoothly.
