In Pennsylvania, a family comparison agreement is usually being prepared, which sets out the remaining estate assets and the timing of distributions. The beneficiaries will release the personal representative and promise to return their distribution in case of future claims. Dave Frees: The last one is that the executors get to the end of the estate management, they only spend the money. They do not conclude the succession of one of the two appropriate species. One of the ways is to go through the trial and tell the judge that all we have done here is what is left and what is left, what is fine with everyone, and the judge is fine. Now I don`t recommend it, and very, very rarely we have to do it, I`m only talking about the smallest percentage of cases ever needed, and that`s usually because there`s some kind of argument. Where the family agrees, we want to skip this whole part of the succession process, so we will often do the second, that is, I will prepare a family comparison agreement, where everyone in the family will say that I have received the records of the estate administration, I know how much the lawyer has been paid, I know how much the accountant was paid, I know how much the funeral expenses were, I know how much the executor took in commission, I know how much money they made with the investments, I know how much money they sold the house, I know how much I have left after the payment of expenses, and I agree, And I take that, and I won`t hold the executor responsible for any mistakes that may have been made, because I don`t think any mistakes were made. Typically, the estate attorney makes a settlement agreement and adds to the agreement a full statement of your deeds as well as a distribution plan in which you inform the heirs of how you want to distribute the estate assets. . . .
