Executor and Trustee Claims: Challenging and Defending
In your role as an estate executor (or administrator if there was no Will), you assume the position of the deceased person, and this consequently renders you susceptible to any claims that may have been brought against the deceased individual.
Simultaneously, you might need to consider whether you in your capacity as executor or administrator needs to bring a claim if it aligns with what is in the best interests of the estate and its beneficiaries.
Sometimes executors/administrators or trustees can find themselves having to confront challenges either from individuals making claims against the estate or even from discontented beneficiaries who disagree with your decisions.
