Probate
Probate is the court process by which a deceased individual's property is distributed according to provisions in his or her will (or the state law if no will exists). This can be a complicated process, particularly in Florida, where there are actually two different forms of probate: formal administration and summary administration. Our firm can walk you through these two processes and explain which one may be appropriate in your situation. We also provide clients information on and representation in:
- Testate and intestate cases
- Asset distribution
- Representation of a personal representative
- Representation of heirs and creditors
- Ancillary probate administration
- Asset distribution
Estate Administration
When dealing with the administration of an estate, it is important that the assets and property are distributed according to the wishes of the deceased. Our firm can represent beneficiaries, executors and other individuals involved in the administration and distribution of an estate. We strive to help clients understand this process and deal with any issues that may arise, including will contests and disagreements about how the estate should be distributed.
Our firm can also represent clients that live out-of-state but are attempting to deal with an estate in Florida. We strive to maintain close communication while we settle all of the estate matters as efficiently as possible.
