What does an Exctarctor of a Will do?

Many terms get thrown around when there’s talk of writing a last will, testimony, and even living trusts. Namely, executor, trustees, beneficiaries, probate, and so on. Arguably the most essential component of all wills and trusts in estate planning is the executor. Most people don’t quite understand that being named as the executor of a will or trust is a huge undertaking, filled with serious responsibilities and duties that must be carried out in the best interest of those named in the documents.
