    Given urgent need, intra-family distrust and the nature of the estate (accounts, company share and rental income), the court must appoint an independent professional. An experienced accountant was the most suitable and economical choice; appointment is subject to statutory fee cap under Cap.10 s60(2)(b), prohibition on sale of properties without court order or beneficiaries' consent, and a security requirement under s36 Cap.10 (HK$2,500,000 to be provided unless professional indemnity insurance proof is produced).
