Probate
When a property owner passes away without a funded trust agreement or will, their assets may need to be processed in Florida probate court. Probate is necessary in Florida to pass the ownership of a decedent's assets to their beneficiaries. Property that qualifies as probate assets in Florida includes, but is not limited to, bank accounts, investment accounts, life insurance policies, annuity contracts, retirement accounts, and real estate. Our lawyer specializes in Florida elder law and can assist families throughout the United States with concluding a decedent's affairs.

Trying to navigate the complexities of the Medicaid system is difficult enough when things are going well. When a sudden change in needs occurs due to an illness or an accident, the help of an attorney well-versed in the structure of Florida Medicaid can make all the difference in the world. If you or a loved one has suddenly required special needs for their care, our elder law attorney can assist you with the Medicaid process.
