FAQ
Even with formal administration, most estates are resolved within 18 months. However, all claims against an estate must be filed within 2 years of the person's death.
Yes. A personal representative can also be a named beneficiary in the decedent's will. For example, in a family with four siblings, one of the siblings or even the spouse may act as a personal representative. There is no law against it as long as the individual is mentally and physically fit to perform the duties.
No, there is no deadline to open a probate in Florida, and we have handled estates 50 years after a person's death. If family members have paid the property taxes so that no tax deeds are granted, probate is often feasible for decades.
Let's break it down: State laws may vary slightly, but the typical scheme of most states, including Florida (§732.101 to A§732.111), is that intestate property passes in this order: spouse, descendants (children or grandchildren), parents, siblings (and children of deceased siblings).
Families typically have to wait six months or more to complete the probate legal process and receive their inheritance. Florida statutes protect attorneys' interest by establishing attorney fees based upon a percentage of probate estate value.
If you own the property alone under your individual name, then a will does dispose of the property at death. However, if you own the property as joint tenants with right of survivorship or as husband and wife, then the real property will pass outside of the will.
In Florida, if you are married when you die and have no will, your spouse will inherit everything, even if you have children together.
Florida law gives a surviving spouse rights in some, but not all, of a decedent's property. A surviving spouse will inherit by operation of law, automatically and immediately, any property titled jointly with rights of survivorship or as tenants by entireties. Jointly owned assets are not subject to probate.
The state of Florida does not allow automatic "transfer upon death" arrangements for deeds of real estate. If a Florida property owner passes away, the property must go through the probate court system for the county the decedent lived in.
