Our Florida Trust Lawyers work with clients on Florida Trust litigation matters. Under current Florida Law, a Florida Revocable Trust must comply with the statute of wills. This means it must be witnessed and notarized correctly to be valid.

The most common disputes in Florida Trust Litigation involve:

Mistake in Execution. A Florida Trust is not valid unless created with the requirement for a valid Florida Trust. These include the :

• The Settlor having the capacity to create the trust;
• The Settlor indicating intent to create the trust;
• The trust must have a definite beneficiary unless charitable or for a pet; and

The trustee must have Duties to perform.

Undue Influence. A Florida trust may be invalid if the person making the Florida Trust did not create the trust or modify the trust freely or was coerced by a person who was in a position of trust and control.

Lack of Capacity. A Florida Trust may be invalid if when the Florida Trust was executed the Settlor or Grantor did not have the required mental ability to understand:

• The amount and nature of the property;
• Who would have normally received the property; and
• How the Florida Will would have disposed of the property
