A Louisiana Administrator’s Bond is a type of surety bond that guarantees the faithful performance of the Administrator’s duties as appointed by the court. This type of bond provides financial protection to the estate of a deceased person in the event the Administrator fails to comply with the court’s orders or mismanages the estate. There are two primary types of Louisiana Administrator’s Bond: Probate Bond and Testamentary Bond. A Probate Bond is required for an Administrator who is appointed by the court to administer the estate of a deceased person who did not have a valid will. A Testamentary Bond is required for an Administrator who is appointed by the court to administer the estate of a deceased person who had a valid will. Both types of Louisiana Administrator’s Bond provide security and protection for the beneficiaries of the estate.
