Types of Probate Matters We Handle

At St. Augustine Probate Attorney, we offer comprehensive probate and estate administration services for families throughout St. Augustine and Northeast Florida. Our experienced attorneys are here to help guide you through the complexities of Florida probate law with confidence and clarity.

Formal Administration (Full Probate)

We handle formal probate proceedings in Florida when required by law, typically for larger estates or when disputes arise. Our team prepares and files the necessary legal documents and represents you throughout the court process.

Summary Administration (Simplified Probate)

For smaller estates that qualify, we can help you file for summary administration, a faster and more cost-effective option to settle an estate when certain conditions are met under Florida law.

Ancillary Probate

If your loved one owned property in Florida but resided in another state, ancillary probate may be necessary to transfer those Florida assets. We can assist out-of-state executors and beneficiaries in handling these matters efficiently.

Probate for Out-of-State Personal Representatives

We regularly assist out-of-state executors and personal representatives in managing Florida probate estates, making sure they fulfill their legal responsibilities in accordance with Florida law.

Will Contests & Probate Litigation

Disputes over the validity of a will, allegations of undue influence, or disagreements between beneficiaries can make the probate process stressful. Our attorneys represent clients in probate litigation and help resolve will contests, creditor claims, and other probate disputes.

  • Will Contests
  • Trust Disputes
  • Guardianship
  • Estate Litigation

Intestate Estates (No Will)

When a loved one passes away without a will (intestate), Florida law determines how the estate is distributed. We guide families through the process of identifying heirs and properly distributing the estate’s assets.

Trust Administration

In addition to probate, we assist trustees in managing and distributing assets held in revocable and irrevocable trusts in accordance with Florida trust law.

Estate Asset Distribution

We work with families to ensure that real estate, bank accounts, personal property, and other assets are properly distributed according to the decedent’s will or Florida law.

Creditor Claims & Estate Debts

We assist personal representatives with addressing valid creditor claims, negotiating debts, and ensuring compliance with Florida’s creditor notification laws during probate.
