Jacksonville Will Attorney

Florida Wills are an important foundation of creating a comprehensive Florida Estate Plann. Our Estate Planning Lawyers which are located in Jacksonville  provide wills for Florida residents all over the state From Duval Count to Miami-Dade and in between. We often work with individuals who are moving to Florida or have assets in Florida with Estate Planning Documents that complement or increase the efficiency of their Estate Planning needs.

A Florida Will is an essential part of a Florida Estate Plan. Many people are under the mistaken belief that their family will be able to take care of their asset distribution, as they want it to be done. Without a Florida Will, the State of Florida will distribute their assets in accordance with the state’s intestate statutes. This often produces undesired results and leaves your spouse without the ability to manage the family’s assets.

If you own property, have children, have recently been married or divorced, or want to make a gift or a bequest to someone it is important to create or update your Florida Will. Our estate planning attorneys will insure that your property is distributed according to your wishes.

Our experience often enables our clients to eliminate estate taxes or death taxes and avoid the costs, fees, and publicity associated with probate. With a Florida Revocable Trust or Florida Living Trust, you may avoid probate. If you have a trust you need a special type of will called a Pour-over Will that will distribute property to your trust. This document is similar to a Florida Will in that it describes what happens to your property in the event of your death. A Trust is not necessary for everyone and only after an analysis of your goals and assets can the proper decision be made. We would be happy to do a free evaluation of your current situation to see what is the proper set of documents for your Florida Estate Planning needs.
