In an attempt to object to summary judgment, the agent stated that, although no informal accounts were made available to the petitioner at the time of publication, her husband and a trusted friend, who was an asset manager for the real estate interests held by the trusts, were properly and fully disclosed to him. (In particular, the recipient was not represented by a lawyer at the time of the release signing.) In addition, the documents provided by the agent suggested that the petitioner was fully aware of the trust values and the transactions that underlie the publications. The dismissal of an executor or agent is the ultimate end of most, if not all, estate and fiduciary administrations. The provision of this level of comfort for the agent can be achieved in two different ways, whether it is a judicial procedure or an out-of-court procedure. Although judicial discharge has been the generally accepted route, many administrators, given the time and effort involved in this course, opt for an informal discharge through a receipt and release. And that`s what this publication does. It is simply the beneficiary who admits in exchange for this payment, I would rob you of the agent in case any error or other problems occurred. What we do not want and what this publication gets is that we do not want the recipient to take the money, hire a lawyer, and then sue the agent for more money. For this reason, the best practice is that an agent spends money on a beneficiary, the agent requires the recipient to sign a receipt and release. They confirm the receipt of the product and free the agent from any claims that may exist, so that both parties can continue and not worry about the subsequent threat of legal action. You may be wondering what would happen if a receipt and authorization were not signed? Well, there`s probably still evidence of the receipt, because there`s probably a cash check. But what about publication? The beneficiary did not technically clear Densen`s agent, which allowed the recipient to turn around and sue the attorney and say, "Hey, I have more money or something, or you did something wrong." This is the risk that exists if the recipient does not sign the release.
