Our Firm understands that many Florida residents are apprehensive about probate. Probate involves the legal process of paying debts and distributing assets after a person’s death. Probate is required in those estates in which the deceased owned property in his or her name alone without a beneficiary designation (e.g., a deed, bank account or brokerage account in the deceased’s individual name).
