Stichting Executele Partners
Have you ever considered how your estate will be handled in the future? Settling an estate is a complex task that requires time, organization and legal knowledge. It can take months or even years to fully finalize everything. Our foundation (Stichting Executele Partners) offers professional support with an executor, ensuring that your heirs are not unnecessarily burdened during an emotionally challenging time.
What does an executor do?
Stichting Executele Partners specializes in the settlement of estates. This includes a wide range of tasks, such as administrative, financial and practical support. Our services ensure that everything is handled carefully and according to your wishes. This includes arranging a declaration of executorship, identifying assets and debts and managing the estate until it is distributed.
Our approach is independent and reliable. We always act in the best interest of the deceased and their heirs, without emotional involvement or personal interests. You can trust that we will handle the entire process professionally and efficiently.
The foundation is closely connected to Westvaer. Notaries from Westvaer serve as the board of this foundation. If a notary at Westvaer stops for any reason, a succeeding notary will be appointed as a board member of the foundation. This ensures that there is always an executor available.

The role of an executor
An executor plays a crucial role in settling an estate. There are three types of executors, each with their own responsibilities:
- funeral executor: handles all matters related to the funeral;
- management executor: manages the estate, such as paying debts and handling administration;
- executor-settlement administrator: takes care of both managing and distributing the estate.
Stichting Executele Partners can act in all these roles, depending on your specific wishes and needs.
How we help you
Our services include:
- applying for a declaration of executorship or inheritance;
- informing institutions, such as banks and pension funds;
- handling subscriptions, insurance policies and other contracts;
- preparing an inventory of the estate;
- appraising and selling assets, such as property or household items;
- handling tax returns, such as inheritance tax and the final income tax return.
