California Administrator, Executor, and Trustee Bonds

Fast and Easy Solutions for California Probate Bonds

In California, Administrator and Executor Bonds, also known as Probate Bonds, are required by county courts for individuals appointed to manage a deceased’s estate. These bonds ensure all debts are paid, and remaining assets are properly distributed to heirs. Given the complexities, we recommend applicants work with an attorney, though BondAbility provides options for those qualified without one.

Bond Types

  • Executor Bond: Required when the deceased left a Will and named an executor. The surety typically reviews a copy of the Will to understand the estate’s complexity.
  • Administrator Bond: Required when the deceased passed away intestate (without a Will). The court appoints a primary heir to administer the estate in accordance with California laws.
  • Trustee Bond: Required when the Will includes a Trust for a beneficiary. The surety must review the Trust to assess responsibilities involved.
