In some families, loans and monetary gifts are presented to the children and often times this may lead to dispute if not kept equal. If it's not clear whether the money is a loan or a gift, conflicts can arise if the parent dies and their estate enters probate. If it's not in writing, the beneficiaries are left to figure it out on their own, or the court must step in and decide.
In cases in which probate is required, the executor of the estate or the next of kin cannot take the actions necessary to administer the estate without the authority granted by the probate court. Probate is a complicated process that requires executors to prepare forms, meet deadlines, keep records, generate reports, submit filings to the court, and serve notices to creditors, heirs and local newspapers.
Choosing a trustee is, perhaps, the most difficult decision you must make when completing an estate plan. Do you choose a family member or friend to be trustee? Why would you want a professional trustee? What should I look for in a trustee? What are the advantages of choosing a professional trustee?

Undue influence means a person substitutes his or her intentions for those of a person making the will, making the will reflect the wishes of the influencer. In Iowa, if another heir or beneficiary suspects that someone may have exerted undue influence on the person who died (the decedent), they may bring an action in probate court.
