In Minnesota a Personal Representative Does What?
A personal representative is the individual who is named by you in your will to ensure that the terms of your will are executed as outlined. This person has a wide variety of duties and can receive a payment from your estate for this service. Your personal representative (formerly called an executor) should be someone that is trustworthy, competent, and has business and finance experience. It is extremely important that you choose someone in whom you trust and you can be sure will represent your interests in an honest way in the event of your death. Very often a personal representative works closely with an estate planning attorney to navigate the probate process.
