(1) The compensation of an executor, administrator or curator, for services as such, shall not exceed five percent (5%) of the value of the personal estate of the decedent, plus five percent (5%) of the income collected by the executor, administrator or curator for the estate.
Creditors can present claims against the estate by two alternative means: (1) by delivering or mailing the personal representative a written statement of the claim indicating the basis, the name and address of the claimant and the amount owed; or (2) by filing a similar statement with the clerk of the probate court
The claim must be filed within 6 months after the appointment of a personal representative. If no personal representative is appointed, then the claim must be filed within two years of the decedents death.
In Kentucky, creditors generally have eight months from the date of the decedents death or six months from the date of the executors appointment to submit claims to the estate (whichever happens earlier).
Even without specific statutory guidance on executor fees in Kentucky, the general understanding among legal professionals suggests that an executor can expect to receive about 2-5% of the estates value. However, this percentage can vary based on the specifics of the estate and the executors duties.
