Formal Administration: This main probate process will definitely need an attorney. The process is described in greater detail below. Summary Administration: The family will likely need an attorney due to the complexity. Disposition without Administration: This process is designed to operate without probate.
Probate in Palm Beach County can vary based on the circumstances, but generally, formal administration can take 12 to 15 months to complete. Summary administration can take less than a month to complete. However, the probate process can take longer if disputes or other difficulties arise.
In most cases, if the probate action is uncontested there will be no hearings required. You can file your paperwork by mail, to the attention of our probate division at P.O. Box 4667, West Palm Beach, FL 33402, or electronically via the Florida e-filing portal at .myflcourtaccess.
