Definitely not if the Will needs to be probated [worth $100,000 or more] and/or that person is not the only heir. Being named exeutor in a Will give you very little if any real power

; the person needs to be appointed by the Court and anyone who might receive anything from the estate can object and nominate their own attorney.

If the will is being probated then perhaps, contact me directly.
