Will Commentary

A Will Commentary is a document that accompanies a person's will, providing explanations and additional information to assist the executor and beneficiaries in interpreting and carrying out the instructions in the will.

The commentary is a helpful guide to the will, providing clarity and context to ensure that the testator's wishes are carried out as intended. It can also prevent confusion or disputes between beneficiaries or the executor, as it provides additional information that may not be included in the will.

The commentary typically includes explanations of any complex provisions in the will, including trusts or conditions attached to gifts. It may also provide details about the testator's intentions and reasons for including certain provisions in the will.

In addition, the commentary may include information about the executor's duties and responsibilities, as well as any specific instructions for the administration of the estate. This can help ensure that the executor is aware of their obligations and is able to carry out the administration of the estate efficiently.
