Codicil to Add or Change Personal Representative/Executor (T1)

Compatible region(s):

Choosing the right person to carry out your final wishes and manage your estate is one of the most important decisions you can make. A personal representative, also known as an executor, is the person you name in your will to administer your estate, settle your debts, and ensure your assets are distributed according to your wishes. 

Whether you want to change or add a new personal representative, this codicil lets you seamlessly make those amendments without needing to revoke or rewrite your entire will. Using this document can help ensure your choice of personal representative is both legally binding and up to date, while keeping the rest of your estate plan unchanged. It provides peace of mind, knowing that when the time comes, a trusted person of your choosing will be in place to execute your final wishes.

You can only use this codicil if you have created a "Last Will and Testament" or "Pour-Over Will" through our service. If your will was created elsewhere, this document is not suitable for use.
