What is probate?
Probate is when a court must distribute an estate to the deceased’s heirs. While some, or even all, the property can circumvent the probate process with proper planning, it’s not always possible to take those steps. The process of probate includes:
- Consolidating a list of all assets
- Resolving the deceased’s debts from those assets
- Distributing remaining assets according to the will
Should a person pass without a will, the court will distribute the estate according to Kentucky’s succession laws.
When you hire the Hensley Law Office to handle your probate case, you can be sure that it will be handled correctly and efficiently so that everyone in the family has the best possible outcome.
