Executor & Trustee Services
Settle the estate faster, avoid costly mistakes, and protect family relationships—with the right level of guidance for your situation.
You feel responsible for everything now.
Whether you were named executor or trustee last week or have been carrying this role for months, the weight of it is real. The paperwork, the decisions, the family looking to you for answers, all while you are grieving and managing the rest of your life.
SageVault gives executors and trustees a structured path forward, wherever you are in the process, so nothing falls through the cracks and no one burns out trying to figure it out alone.
Your Next 30 Days
Structured. Supported. Moving Forward.
The executor role does not get easier the longer you wait. Whether you have just started or have been carrying this for months, what most executors need is a structured 30-day sprint with an expert in their corner: someone who knows what to do next, what can wait, what cannot, and how to protect the estate and the family at the same time.
What’s included:
✓ A 90-Minute Strategy Session. A full assessment of where things stand, what’s missing, and exactly what needs to happen next.
✓ Four Weekly 60-Minute Coaching Sessions. You are never more than a week away from expert guidance.
✓ Risk Evaluation. Identify risks before they become expensive problems.
✓ Full Executor Toolkit. 20+ templates covering notifications, asset logs, debt tracking, and family communication.
✓ Document and Record-Keeping Setup. A clean, organized, and shareable system.
✓ 45 Days of Email Support. Direct email access for 45 days, for everything that comes up between calls.
✓ Coordination with Your Professional Team. Your full team working from the same plan, minimizing duplication and gaps.
✓Hands-On Task Support. Tara handles the time-consuming tasks that don’t require a legal designation: sourcing and coordinating service providers, searching for unclaimed assets, posting to creditors, and managing bookkeeping.
