The Team

Denine Thingvold and Bret Van De Walle

​

In addition to being Certified Executor Advisors (CEA), our team consists of compassionate professionals with extensive expertise across business management, financial administration, and managing family dynamics.

​

We draw on a strong track record of managing estate finances, fostering clear and impartial relationships with beneficiaries, and meeting critical administrative and legal deadlines. We utilize this collective experience to provide you with total peace of mind, offering tailored executor services for administering your estate.

​

​Historically, named executors were emotionally tied to the deceased, which often caused significant added stress. Engaging an impartial third party reduces animosity, mitigates conflicts, and ensures the estate is settled properly and efficiently.

OUR APPROACH

Working collaboratively, we will determine the level of involvement you want. Our team will then proceed with the required notifications to businesses, government agencies, credit card companies and professional agencies to help protect the estate and reduce the risk of identity theft.

​

Once the appropriate notifications have been sent, we will work with you to create the estate record depository. We will obtain and consolidate the required estate information and records. These details will assist in preparing for probate and allow us to act as your liaison with the appropriate professionals.

​

Managing an estate is a time-consuming, complex job that involves considerable effort and responsibility. Our team will work to ensure matters are handled promptly, accurately and responsibly, providing guidance and peace of mind throughout the process.

Our Clients Say

"I recently lost a close family member, and had the fortune to have Denine Thingvold act as the executor of the estate.   Denine proved to be highly personable, prompt, professional and very knowledgeable. She showed compassion and understanding during this difficult time of loss for our family.  It is a true benefit to have someone with her expertise to guide us through this process, as it allowed us to move forward with grieving, not having to worry about the details of dealing with legal documents, banks, wills, etc.  She handled all aspects of the estate in a very quick manner, and she always communicated with us whenever necessary.  We were very impressed with her services and highly recommend Denine for your executor needs. "
