What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Kentucky
My aunt has a will. In that will she is giving the majority of her estate to be divided equally between four different charities/non-profit organizations.
She recently went to a seminar from a company who wants to "help her manage
her will"...and they told her that if she donates the majority of her estate to non-profits,
that the government will take 1/2 of her estate for taxes first.
I truly hope she just heard this wrong, but can anyone here shine a light on a statement like this? Is there anything out there that resembles this statement for the state of Ky?
Thank you in advance,
