FAQ
How do you become executor of an estate after death in Florida? To become an executor, the decedent must name you in their will. If there's no will, or it doesn't name an executor, a Florida probate court appoints one selected by the beneficiaries if there is no surviving spouse.
Probate in Miami-Dade County usually takes about 9 to 12 months. If things are simple, it might only take 6 months, but complicated cases can last up to 18 months.
The document is an 'Affidavit of Heirs' used in the probate process in Miami-Dade County, Florida. It requires the listing of all relatives of a deceased individual, including spouses, children, parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and kindred of the last deceased spouse.
People who die without a will in the state of Florida put upon their relatives the necessity of filing an Affidavit of Heirs to establish their eligibility to share in your estate.
ALTHOUGH YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO HAVE AN ATTORNEY FOR CERTAIN PROBATE PROCEEDINGS, ONLY AN ATTORNEY CAN GIVE LEGAL ADVICE. IF YOU CHOOSE TO PROCEED WITHOUT AN ATTORNEY, AT ANY TIME IN YOUR CASE YOU MAY OPT TO HIRE ONE.
Under § 733.304 of the Florida Probate Code, residents may only name an out-of-state executor if the person is related to the resident by blood, adoption, or marriage. Examples would include the resident's: Spouse. Biological child or grandchild.
This requires several steps: Petition the court to open the estate. The probate attorney will prepare a document called a petition to file with the court to open the estate. File proof of decedent's death. File oath of office. Designate resident agent. Furnish bond. Serve notice of administration.
How to File to Be Executor of an Estate Without a Will. An intestate estate, or one without a will, requires a petition filed with the probate court in the county where the deceased resided if you wish to serve as administrator. In Florida, the probate process starts with filing a petition and other required documents.
