My brother predeceased his wife and from discussion I understand their will leaves a % of estate to my son .I imagine this will be inherited when my sister in law dies .(😥)
I didn't realise that I'd be named as an executor until I received a letter from the firm dealing saying that they are reserving power to me (which I understand ) and that my name will not appear on the Grant of Representation .
And that the Grant will be applied for in the name of insert name of firm dealing
for the "use and benefit" ( their quotation marks ) of our instructing client insert name of one of the executors .
Can someone reassure me as to the implications of a Trust which seems to be in the name of one executor ?
I'm afraid I'm a bit paranoid about wills /trusts etc .Particularly as I have found communication with said executor unhelpful .
TIA
I
