As probate attorneys, we work with the personal representative (executor) throughout the Probate Court process.  A Florida probate administration usually includes the gathering of a decedent’s assets, paying debts, and making distribution of the estate.

We also advise clients about the availability of summary administration procedures.  A summary administration is a simplified and abbreviated probate proceedings.  It may be available for those whose probate assets are less than a specified amount and who meet the other qualifications as determined by Florida law.

Our probate attorney team also assists Trustees in the administration of trusts. A successor Trustee may be needed due to the death, incapacity or resignation of the Trustee.  Our trust administration attorneys can draft appropriate trust administration documentation and advise the successor trustee regarding their rights and duties.

Oftentimes, a family member retires to Florida, leaving loved ones in charge who live out of state. Our Florida probate lawyers are experienced and efficient in working with clients throughout the United States.
