If there's specific bequest, like it says, I want my diamond ring to go to my granddaughter, Alice, then the executor's job is to make sure that ring gets to her and it's in safekeeping.

If it's a lot of money, then typically the money has to be held in a custodial account or in a trust.
voice-verified
And that depends how it's set up in the will.
voice-verified
Then it's more complicated because the court would appoint someone to be the administrator of this state.
voice-verified
They basically would have the same job of all this administrative duties.
voice-verified
It's just like an executor, but it's a court appointed person instead of someone appointed under the will.
voice-verified
Exactly, because otherwise you're kind of being left at the hands of the state laws that determine who's in line to be executor.
voice-verified
One family I talked to, the stepdaughter really was the one who was taking care of the mother in her late age, but she as a stepchild in California wasn't first in line to handle the estate.
voice-verified
No matter what you have in the will, it's very possible there are conflicts.
voice-verified
Like one example, I had a family where the gentleman left his house to four adult grandchildren.
voice-verified
But then shortly after he died, one of them moved into the house.
voice-verified
So the executor, who was the son-in-law, was kind of stuck with this hard job of telling that grandchild, you have to move out.
voice-verified
He gave them 90 days because the will says we have to sell the house and divide the proceeds among the four grandchildren.
voice-verified
So that's the kind of job you can be stuck with.
voice-verified
It really depends on the state that you live in and the rules there.
voice-verified
Some of them require a lawyer to be involved.
voice-verified
Some don't.
voice-verified
Some attorneys charge fixed fees.
voice-verified
That could be $5,000.
voice-verified
Some charge hourly.
