Estate Planning Essentials with Steve Bliss

Interview with Brenda Ramirez, Moreno Valley News Reporter

Today we’re speaking with Steve Bliss, a renowned estate planning attorney here in Moreno Valley, about the importance of having a solid estate plan.

The Significance of Selecting an Executor or Trustee

Steve, why is choosing an executor or trustee such a crucial step in the estate planning process?

“Brenda, selecting the right person to handle your affairs after you’re gone is paramount. This individual, known as an executor for a will or trustee for a trust, will be responsible for carrying out your wishes outlined in these legal documents.”

“They’ll manage your assets, pay debts and taxes, and distribute your property according to your instructions. Consequently, it’s vital to choose someone trustworthy, organized, and capable of handling financial matters responsibly. Moreover, open communication with this person about your expectations is key.”

“I always advise clients to have frank conversations with their chosen executor or trustee about their responsibilities and any potential challenges they might face. This can help ensure a smoother process during an already difficult time.”

“Notwithstanding the importance of selecting a capable individual, I’ve encountered situations where family dynamics complicate matters. For instance, one client chose their eldest son as executor, but he was estranged from his siblings. This led to disputes and delays in settling the estate. Consequently, it’s crucial to consider not just competence but also the potential for interpersonal conflicts.”

“Remember, a well-chosen executor or trustee can significantly ease the burden on your loved ones during a vulnerable time.”
