Probate is the legal process used to administer a person’s estate after death. In Florida, this process is supervised by the court and may involve identifying assets, resolving creditor claims, and distributing property to beneficiaries.
There are two primary types of probate administration in Florida:
This is the standard probate process used for most estates. It involves court oversight, appointment of a personal representative, required notices to creditors, and structured distribution of assets.
This is a simplified process available under certain circumstances, typically when the estate meets specific statutory requirements. While streamlined, it still requires proper documentation and court approval.
The appropriate path depends on the estate’s structure, assets, and timing. During consultation, we help determine which process applies and outline what to expect.

Probate is not always required in Florida—it’s only needed when assets are owned solely in the deceased person’s name without a beneficiary or joint owner. Assets with built-in transfers (like joint ownership, named beneficiaries, or trusts) typically avoid probate. For smaller estates, Florida may allow simplified processes instead of full probate.
