Estate Planning Questions Answered
What is estate planning and why do I need it?
Estate planning is the process of arranging for the management and distribution of your assets after death or incapacity. Everyone needs estate planning to protect their family, minimize taxes, avoid probate delays, and ensure their wishes are honored. Without proper planning, Florida intestacy laws will determine how your assets are distributed.
How much does estate planning cost in Florida?
In Florida, a basic will package typically costs $500-$1,500. A comprehensive trust-based estate plan, which includes a revocable living trust, pour-over will, power of attorney, and healthcare directives, generally runs $2,500-$5,000 or more depending on complexity. During your consultation, we assess your needs and provide transparent pricing before any work begins.
What is the difference between a will and a trust in Florida?
A will goes through probate court, which can take 6-12 months and become public record. A trust avoids probate entirely, keeps your affairs private, and allows for immediate asset distribution. Trusts also provide protection during incapacity. We help determine which option best fits your family situation.
Do I need an attorney for estate planning in Florida?
While not legally required, working with an experienced estate planning attorney ensures your documents are legally valid, properly executed, and actually accomplish your goals. Florida has specific requirements for wills and trusts. DIY documents often fail when they are needed most.
What happens if I die without an estate plan in Florida?
If you die without an estate plan in Florida, your assets pass through intestate succession laws. The court will decide who receives your property, who manages your estate, and who cares for minor children. This process is public, time-consuming, and may not reflect your actual wishes.
What happens if I already have an estate plan?
Life changes, and estate plans should keep up. A child heading to college, a new home purchase, or changes in family health can all impact how your plan works. Reviewing your documents helps make sure everything still reflects your wishes and protects your family.
How long does estate planning take?
A basic will can typically be drafted and signed within 1-2 weeks. A comprehensive trust-based estate plan usually takes 2-4 weeks from the initial consultation to signing. Complex estates involving business interests or tax planning may take longer. We work efficiently while ensuring every detail is addressed correctly.
