If someone asks you to serve as Personal Representative or notifies you that they have already named you in their Last Will and Testament, you can still decline the role. Simply advise them that while you are honored to be considered, you are unable to accept.
A personal representative usually arranges for the management and security of estate property, handles payments of all debts and expenses owed by both the deceased and the estate, and assesses income-tax and estate-tax liabilities.
Under the Uniform Probate Code , a personal representative has the same power over the title to property of the estate that an absolute owner would have. Although, the personal representative holds the property of the estate in trust for the benefit of the creditors and others interested in the estate. This power
A successor personal representative shall have the same powers and duties as the original personal representative including the powers granted in the will but excluding any power that the will expressly made personal to the personal representative named in the will.
The probate petition typically consists of an application to be officially appointed as the executor, the death certificate, and the original will. A petitioner must ask the probate court to officially be appointed as the executor regardless of whether the decedents will has named them as an executor.
