Can you have an out-of-state executor of your Will?

Generally, you can name anyone that you want to be your executor. However, states do have qualifications that the person must meet in order to be an executor. For example, minors and convicted felons cannot serve as executors. In your case, you need to find out if there are any limits to your daughter being your executor because she lives out-of-state. Some states prohibit executors who live out-of-state unless they are family members. It's probably acceptable for your daughter to be your executor. But you should consult a probate attorney familiar with West Virginia probate law to advise you if there are any other steps that your daughter will need to take, for example, posting a special bond.
