Can a parent appoint 2 children to share dual Power of Attorney responsibilities?
Can they request in a will that 2 children share Executor of Estate duties after their death?
I know typically you hear of 1 person so was not certain if 2 people are possible.
Thanks in advance.
Yes, you can appoint two executors of the estate if you wish. I figure if your children are compatible and work together well it would be fine to appoint more than one. If you have a child you can not trust, then that is a different issue. Most people I know appoint their children with care to make sure the best person is appointed and no feelings are hurt. But not in all circumstances. Sometimes the wrong person is appointed and others are hurt. It is a hard decision that requires much thought and communication with family.
Hope this helps. I know from experience of being left out and hurt. Sorry to say.
