Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Ohio
Executors
My parents live in Ohio. I have been told that the executor for a will (in Ohio) must be a resident of that state. Is this correct? Thank you.

Children can serve as Executors for their parents, even when living out of state.

An executor need not be an Ohio resident to act in the official capacity. However, the court will require the executor to post a bond, even if bond is waived by the terms of the will.
