  • How the Right Probate Litigation Attorney Could Help You Assert Your Rights
    Hiring a Florida estate litigation attorney is a big decision. However, you can make a better, more informed decision by following several simple steps.

    Estate contests are often decided by the quality and quantity of available evidence. However, any challenge could have unexpected consequences.

    While Florida restricts who can and cannot serve as an out-of-state executor, estate representatives may find themselves facing additional obstacles.

    A self-proving will that has been improperly notarized could require additional authentication, paving the way for bad-faith estate contests.
  • Ways to Prove a Last Will and Testament Is a Forgery
    While a court in FL may accept a handwriting expert's opinion as evidence of forgery, the defendant may employ other strategies to ensure the will is fulfilled.

    If you do not remove squatters from an estate property promptly, they could stake a compelling legal claim to the structure and premises.

  • How Trustees and Beneficiaries End Up in Trust Litigation in Florida

  • How to Use Codicils to Amend or Update a Will in Florida
    A Florida estate litigation attorney explains how to use codicils to make changes, provide clarification, or completely revoke a last will and testament.
