Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Florida

Duties of Fla. Executor

Where can I find the duties and responsibilities of an Executor of a Fla. will? Must the Executor live in Florida if the will was made in Florida?

You can find out the duties of a Florida executor by speaking with a Florida attorney; by reading the Florida Statutes; by going to the law section of your local library and reading the up on probate duties; by reading Florida Jurisprudence 2d (the Florida Encyclopedia of law) the section dealing with probate.I can provide you a written summary of a Personal Representative's duties, for a fee, if you are interested.

To serve as executor in Florida you must be a blood relative or a Florida resident.

I am licensed only in Fla. and the Federal Courts and answer questions only from/re. Florida connected inquiries.

Nothing can substitute for a personal conference with an attorney and you are strongly encouraged to call/consult with one.

By answering your question I am not agreeing to represent you and do not intend to create an atty./client relationship. I accept no responsibility for errors or problems arising from the answers I give. PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK!
