A beneficiary is an individual named in a will who is to receive property according to the terms of the will. In Georgia, the decedent’s estate attorney has an obligation to send copies of the will to all named beneficiaries, including individual’s who are not named in the will, but may have an interest in the decedent’s estate. If a minor child is named as a beneficiary, the executor of the estate will usually send a copy of the will to the minor child’s guardian.
