Louisiana Restrictions on Who Can Serve as Executor

One of the most important reasons to make a will is to name your executor -- sometimes called a “succession representative” in Louisiana.

Every state has some rules about who may serve as the executor of an estate that goes through probate. Here are the requirements in Louisiana.
