Pendleton County, KY Estate Planning & Elder Law

Medicaid planning, estate planning, and probate for families in Falmouth, Butler, and across Pendleton County.

Serving Families in Pendleton County

In Pendleton County, small towns like Falmouth, the county seat, and Butler along the Licking River give the area a close-knit, rural character. Our Pendleton clients often ask two questions: how do we keep the family property together for the next generation, and how do we protect a spouse if one of us needs nursing home care?

We answer both with practical Medicaid planning and estate planning, and we help families with estates that need to go through the local court. For families who would rather not make the drive north, we are happy to meet by phone or video.

Probate & Guardianship in Pendleton County

In Kentucky, probate and guardianship cases are generally heard by the district court in the county where the person lived, with filings made through the circuit court clerk’s office. For Pendleton County, that is the local court in Falmouth. We prepare the paperwork and explain what to expect, so the executor is never left guessing about the next step.
