Why You Need An Estate Plan In Kentucky

Living without an estate plan is risky. If you don’t have one in place, the state will decide who inherits your assets (intestate succession). Missing an estate plan gives way to a variety of probate challenges, such as lengthy court proceedings and potential family disputes over asset distribution.

You can avoid this by working with a skilled estate planning attorney in creating an estate plan that may include a will, living trust and health care directives.
