Jeff Hensley Law

Jeff Hensley has assisted families in Ashland and Russell, Kentucky with probate and estate matters for over three decades. His practical, hands-on approach helps clients navigate probate with clarity, efficiency, and peace of mind.

Probate is the legal process of administering a deceased person’s estate, including validating the will, paying debts, and distributing assets to beneficiaries.

Not all estates require formal probate. Some assets may pass outside of probate depending on how they are titled or designated.

The timeline varies based on the size and complexity of the estate, but probate can take several months to over a year.

If someone dies without a will, Kentucky’s intestacy laws determine how the estate is distributed. An attorney can help guide families through this process.

While not legally required, a probate attorney can help avoid delays, errors, and disputes—especially when estates are complex or contested.
