We can help you understand the complicated probate rules and how to navigate them. Ensure your family has no chaos. An estate is a legal entity that exists separately from the deceased. The estate's executor will be responsible for proving your will in a court of law, which will confirm that it is a valid example of your true wishes. Stone Legal Group knows most estates require some level of probate, especially if the decedent had a Last Will and Testament. A probate process in Kentucky is conducted in the District Court in the county of the decedent's residence. A more straightforward probate process is available for small estates in Kentucky of $30,000 or less, excluding real property. Stone Legal Group will guide you through the probate process and all its steps. Each county has its specific rules, so it is crucial to understand the probate process in that jurisdiction. Do not assume your will and estate will be handled according to your needs and wishes without consulting a lawyer. Your estate may still need to go through the probate process after your death. Stone Stone Legal Group has helped clients navigate the Kentucky probate process since 1984. This legal process is called probate, or estate administration, and serves to prove a deceased individual's Last Will and Testament. If someone dies without a will, an estate still exists since the laws of intestacy determine how assets are distributed. Probate must occur within a certain time after death, and most probates commence within a year of someone's passing. If probate is deemed necessary, the decedent's property must go through the Kentucky probate process in the county where the deceased resided. Kentucky probate requires a case number and an interested party to petition the court. If you are not a relative or other interested party, you may also petition the court. The Probate Court will then assign a case number and schedule a time to review the petition. During this process, the personal representative (executor or administrator) will manage and protect the assets of the estate, pay off any debts, and make sure that the beneficiaries are paid according to the will. A personal representative is also required if there is no Last Will and Testament, and this figure is then appointed in accordance with the Kentucky Revised Statutes. The court of probate will ensure the personal representative complies with the statutory requirements and the terms of the Last Will and Testament. We can assist you with opening a probate someone dies in Kentucky, wherever you are in the country.
