Elder law is new school, and holistic in both its focus, and its solution set. Elder law attorneys have to look well outside of that tool box for a solution for each client’s own special needs. The question asked by the elder law attorney is “what is the best possible solution, legal, practical, financial, insurance related, or otherwise, that best fits this client?”
Estate planning is the process of assessing your assets and determining to whom, among your family, friends or favorite charities, you would like to leave specific assets and gifts.Estate planning requires an intimate knowledge of federal and state estate tax rules. The attorneys at Grady H. Williams, Jr., LL.M., Attorneys at Law, P.A., have been creating and executing estate plans for the bulk of their careers. Their combined experience as estate planners position them to serve your needs.
Probate is court supervised control of a decedent’s estate to determine what the decedent’s estate consists of, whether the decedent’s will and any other instructions are legally enforceable, and who is entitled to the estate. The two most common probate procedures in Florida are Summary Administration for older or smaller estates and Formal Administration for newer and larger estates.
One of the key tasks in planning for the financial future of your beneficiaries involves putting your thoughts into action. Because you will no longer able to express your wishes to loved ones, requests must be clear and concise in order for them to be followed after you are gone. You can maximize the possibility that requests for beneficiaries will be carried out by setting up a trust.
A Will is a legal document recognized to be binding and controlling of the decedent’s property.Most people would be well advised to have at least some form of a current, legally enforceable Will in place. Your assets, family structure, needs, goals, budget, desire for privacy, potential for family conflict, tax exposure, and need for asset protection all need to be weighed to determine what the best estate plan design is for you.
