Robin Gorenberg quoted in NY Times Article
Attorney Robin Gorenberg was quoted in an article entitled “Choosing the Right Executor for your Estate”, which appeared in a special “Retirement” Section of the March 3, 2011 New York Times. The article discusses the importance of making a well-thought out decision about who to name as the Executor of your Will, particularly in light of new estate tax laws that make the Executor’s job more important than ever. The Executor is the person who handles your estate when you die, gathering information about assets and values, hiring the lawyer to handle the probate process (if required), and basically overseeing settling the details of your estate. There can be a single executor or one or more people charged with this job. The person you choose should be organized and able to act as the liason between the attorney, CPA and financial advisors. Attorney Gorenberg stressed the benefits of talking with the people you are naming, and even those family members who you are not naming, to be sure that the people closest to you are all on the same page.
