Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in California

nomination of executor

can I have two executors in my will.

If I have two and they cannot agree on

something can I elect my sister to

arbitrate any disputes that they may

have?

Residuary Estate-what does it mean

heirs-at-law, their identities and

respective shares to be determined

under the laws of the State of

California, then in effect, relating to

the succession of separate property

that is not attributable to a

predeceased spouse, as if I had died

intestate at the time fixed for

distribution under this provision.?????

Re: nomination of executor

You can have as many executors as desired. Y0ou can also determine who has final say, or add your sister as a final "tie-breaker" person.

A residuary estate is what is left over after everything has been distributed. We usually recommend a combination of a will and a trust. This will avoid Probate and allow for more exact distribution. Please take a moment to review will, trust and Probate laws and rules on our website at www.No-Probate.com.

Please feel free to call our office if you need additional information.
