My will currently has a local firm of solicitors as the sole executor. The estate is quite big and has multiple bank accounts, shareholdings, house, etc and will take some effort to wind up, and I don't want family to have to undertake the large workload (and they all live a significant distance away) so I'm happy for the solicitors to do the work.
I would like to add a couple of family members as executors, just to advise the solicitors as required, and also to effectively sign off the work (I'm sure the firm of solicitors is trustworthy but I'd prefer to have a final check of the accounts).
Is this feasible and reasonable, without exposing the family members to significant workload or other risks?
