* Generally there are only one or two Executors to a Will. Executor (male) or Executrix (female.) It is odd there should be five Executors. An Executor/Executrix has the right to decline to handle the wishes of the said Will and this is the reason for basically having a back up Executor or Executrix. The group of siblings should get together and decide who will be handling the Will as Executor or Executrix. If one is chosen then they should get a fee for their trouble which is anywhere from one to four percent of the entire Estate (property, monies, etc.) and that will be up to the other siblings unless otherwise stipulated in the Will.

If all five are named the court may allow it. However, having five co-executors may complicate the probating of the estate. Nothing can be done without all five in agreement and all five signatures. Also, all five will require a bond. It may be wiser to choose the most responsible and organized in the group and name an alternate.

You should consult with an attorney who specializes in probate law who can review your situation, explain your options, and explain the consequences of having five co-executors.
