In Florida, while having an attorney to settle an estate is not legally required, it’s highly recommended. Probate law can be complex, and an attorney can help navigate the process, ensure compliance with state laws, and resolve any disputes among beneficiaries, making the process smoother and more efficient.

Attorney fees for estate planning are generally not tax-deductible. However, if part of the fees is related to tax advice or services directly connected to the production or management of income-producing property, that portion may be deductible. It’s important to consult with a tax professional to determine eligibility.

An estate planning attorney helps clients create legal documents like wills, trusts, and powers of attorney to manage their assets and wishes upon incapacity or death. They also provide guidance on minimizing taxes, ensuring legal compliance, and navigating probate to efficiently settle an estate.
