What To Look For in a Florida Estate Planning Attorney
1. Experience in Florida Estate Law
Florida has its own rules on probate, homestead property, elective share rights, and creditor claims. You want an attorney who understands local laws and court procedures, not someone unfamiliar with Florida’s specific legal environment.
2. A Focus on Estate Planning
The best estate planning attorneys devote a significant part of their practice to wills, trusts, healthcare directives, powers of attorney, and probate avoidance. They stay current on Florida law changes that affect estates and beneficiaries.
3. Clear Communication
Estate planning involves complex issues like taxes, guardianship, and trust management. Your attorney should be able to explain these concepts clearly and offer practical solutions based on your goals.
4. Transparent Fee Structure
Look for attorneys who offer flat fees for most estate plans or who clearly explain their billing practices upfront. You should never be left wondering what you’re paying for.
5. Willingness to Customize Your Plan
No two families are the same. Your estate plan should be tailored to your unique situation—whether that includes blended families, special needs trusts, business succession, or charitable giving.
6. Ongoing Support
Good estate planning doesn’t end after documents are signed. Life changes—and your estate plan should too. Choose a lawyer who offers reviews, updates, and support as your needs evolve.
