Re: estate attorney

Without knowing more, there generally is not conflict of interest if the administrator/executor/trustee is also a beneficiary of the estate planning documents.

However an non-relative attorney may have problems under Probate Code section 21350, etc.

If you would like to contact me to assist you further, please do not hesitate to contact me.
