A testator (or testatrix), executor, and beneficiary are all parties in a Last Will.
Who is a testator?
A testator (or testatrix) is the person who creates a Last Will and whose property is distributed after they pass away.
Who is an executor?
An executor, sometimes called a personal representative, is the person who carries out your wishes according to your Last Will.
Who is a beneficiary?
When you create a Last Will, you designate beneficiaries who will receive assets (such as money, property, or a portion of your estate) when you pass away.
A beneficiary can be a person or an organization (like a charity). In rare cases, a beneficiary can also be a place (like a community garden or a town).
