"More than one executor for family matters"
Replies
That would certainly be a tension-inducing situation. But take note: being an executor is not an easy role by any means. Executors have to endure an often grueling and complex process after the person who appoints them passes away; it’s a heavy responsibility and those who may be interested in being named as such should consider all that’s involved.

Many experts recommend appointing at least two executors, so that if something were to happen to one of them, there would be another to step into the role.

Hi there, I am wondering if a family ( or my parents) can name more than one of their children executor of their estate? There is definitely extreme tension .
