Persons who have accumulated property in their lifetimes, or persons who anticipate accumulating property in their lifetimes, or who have spouses or children should prepare a Last Will and Testament in order to ensure that their property, also referred to as an estate, passes onto their spouses and children in the manner that they intend.
In the State of Florida, when preparing a will, due consideration must be given to the State of Florida concepts of homestead, surviving spouses and their right to an elective share. Additionally, the State of Florida’s Self-Proving statutory and rule provisions pertaining to the execution of a person’s Last Will and Testament should be given careful consideration.
As persons residing in the State of Florida are subject to the laws of the United States of America pertaining to the taxation of property upon death, in certain instances, due consideration of a person preparing a Last Will and Testament must also be duly considered.
Attorney Robert Morrow, with his over 30 years of legal experience and staff of trained legal assistants, is able to advise and counsel his clients on the various laws and rules pertaining to the proper preparation and execution of a person’s Last Will and Testament.
The legal cost to a person desiring to prepare a Last Will and Testament depends upon the complexity of the person’s desired distribution scheme, planned with due consideration given to the extent of a person’s property. Simple Last Wills and Testaments are prepared at fairly nominal cost through the utilization of trained legal assistants.
