FCS5-425: Estate Planning Part 5: Wills and Probate in Kentucky
Authored by: Nichole Huff
Abstract
Unless you have made other provisions, such as a trust, your will is the way to make certain that your property is transferred or disposed of according to your wishes. Your will is also the document that allows you to designate who will be responsible for seeing that your wishes are carried out. This person is known as the executor of your estate. If you fail to make a will or some other legal document for the transfer of your property, Kentucky law will determine how your assets are transferred.
