Answers to Your Probate Questions

What is probate?

Probate is the legal process of validating a will, settling debts, and distributing a person’s assets after they pass away.

How long does probate take in Florida?

It depends on the estate, but many cases take 6–12 months. Complex estates or disputes can take longer.

Do all estates go through probate in Florida?

Not always. Some assets pass automatically, like those with named beneficiaries. But if assets are solely in the deceased’s name, probate is usually required.

Can I avoid probate?

Yes, with proper planning. Tools like revocable trusts and beneficiary designations can help. But once someone has passed, probate may be necessary, and that’s where we can help.
