Your Questions, Answered
Common questions about estate planning, probate, and our services
How much does estate planning cost?
We work on a flat-fee basis, so you’ll know the full cost before any work begins and before you sign anything. No hourly billing, no surprises. Reach out to learn more about our pricing.
How long does the estate planning process take?
Every plan is personalized, so timelines vary. For most clients, the process takes just a few weeks from our first conversation to the signing. The best way to get a sense of your timeline is to schedule your free Legacy Clarity Call.
What's the difference between a will and a trust?
A will directs how your assets are distributed after you pass and goes through the Florida probate process. A trust allows assets to transfer directly to your beneficiaries without probate, often saving your family significant time and cost. The right choice depends on your specific situation and that’s exactly what we figure out together.
What happens if I die without a will in Florida?
Florida’s intestacy laws take over and decide how your assets are distributed and that decision may not reflect your wishes. Without a plan, your family may also face a lengthy and costly probate process. An estate plan puts you completely in control.
Can I update my estate plan later?
Absolutely, and you should. Life changes, and your estate plan should too. Marriage, divorce, the birth of a child, a move, or a significant change in assets are all reasons to revisit your plan. We’re here to help you keep it current.
What is probate and how long does it take?
Probate is the court-supervised legal process of settling a deceased person’s estate in Florida. It involves validating the will, notifying creditors, inventorying assets, and distributing what remains to beneficiaries. The timeline varies depending on the complexity of the estate. Having an experienced Florida probate attorney keeps the process moving as efficiently as possible.
Do you offer services in Spanish?
Yes. We proudly serve clients in both English and Spanish. Every step of the process, from your first call to your signing, is available in Spanish to assure you’re comfortable with the process.
What happens to my business if I become incapacitated or pass away without a plan?
Without a plan in place, your business could face immediate operational disruption, financial instability, or forced closure. Florida courts may need to get involved, creating delays and costs that could have been entirely avoided with proper planning.
Do I need a succession plan if my business is small?
Yes. The size of your business doesn’t determine the need for a plan, but the people who depend on it do. A succession plan protects your employees, your clients, and your family from uncertainty if something unexpected happens to you.
What is a Buy-Sell Agreement and do I need one?
A Buy-Sell Agreement is a legally binding contract that governs what happens to your ownership interest if you die, become incapacitated, or decide to exit the business. If you have business partners, it is one of the most important documents you can have — and one of the most commonly overlooked.
