Estate Planning

Estate Planning is preparing for what happens to your family and assets if you become incapacitated or are no longer alive. It is extremely important to plan for the future to provide peace of mind for you while you are living and peace of mind for your family after you become deceased. Unfortunately, a significant number of people die without making their wishes known, leaving loved ones without proper instructions for their property and assets. When a person dies without a legally qualifying plan for his or her assets, the person dies Intestate. Florida intestacy laws take effect and may not distribute the deceased person’s assets the way the person would have intended.

It is essential to make intentions known in an Estate Plan. Legal rights are often at risk as timing becomes more urgent after an individual becomes deceased. This period of grief is often difficult for loved ones and exacerbated as they seek legal understanding, guidance and assistance.
