If the will names me as Personal Representative, do I have to serve?
No. If you choose not to serve, the Court may appoint an alternate to be the Personal Representative. If there is no alternate named in the will, or if that person does not want to serve, the Court may appoint a fiduciary to serve. The Court usually appoints a capable family member or an independent professional fiduciary.
