person named to administer an estate used to be called an executor or executrix. Now the term is personal representative, regardless of whether that person is named in a will or is appointed because there was no will.

A personal representative carries out the wishes of the decedent regarding distribution of his/her assets, and to complete the decedent’s business, such as paying bills and filing tax returns.

The personal representative is the court representative who has the authority to search for any important documents. The search should include the home, office, place of business, and any safe deposit boxes. Meeting with advisors such as accountants, investment professionals, insurance agents, and attorneys is advised. Any information indicating that an asset exists or that bills are unpaid should be kept for use in the administration of the estate. Items to look for:

• Funeral and burial plans

• Safe deposit rental agreements and keys

• Trust agreements

• Nuptial agreements

• Life insurance policies or statements

• Pension, IRA, or retirement statements

• Recent income tax returns for past several years

• Gift tax returns

• Marriage, birth, and death certificates

• Divorce papers

• Military records and discharge papers

•Certificates of deposit, bank statements, checkbooks, and check registers

• Notes receivable and payable

• Stock and bond certificates and account statements

• Bankruptcy filings

• Partnership, LLC, or corporate agreements
