Coming soon – Emergent announces Executor Services addition to Estate Administration at no additional cost

Mississauga, Ontario, Canada - October 10, 2019 - Starting next month, users of Emergent's Estate Administration software will be able to offer their clients select Executor Services, including fraud prevention for the deceased, at no additional cost.
"There are over 2.5 million instances of fraud related to deceased's personal information each year in North America", says Darren Cooper, President & CEO of Emergent.  "In 2017, identity fraud cost North Americans over $16 billion dollars.  By bundling automatic notification to credit bureaus with our Estate Administration software, law firms can help reduce the chance of fraud and perform a critical service for Executors that is sometimes forgotten or not completed in a timely manner."
The Executor Services initially targeted by Emergent are the most time consuming responsibilities of an Executor.  By automating these services within Emergent's Estate Administration software, Emergent reduces the burden on the Executor, ensures these services are completed in an efficient and timely manner, and allows law firms to develop a closer relationship with the Executor, all while providing another source of revenue.
