Legal Guardianship is an important, court-directed process that ensures the interests of incapacitated adults and minors are protected. Incapacity can result from dementia, stroke, injury, or other medical conditions, that render a person unable to care for themselves and/or their property.

Legal Guardianship is an important, court-directed process that ensures the interests of incapacitated adults and minors are protected. Incapacity can result from dementia, stroke, injury, or other medical conditions, that render a person unable to care for themselves and/or their property. Minors (under age 18) that receive an inheritance or settlement from a legal claim may require a guardianship of that property depending on the amount received.
Guardian Advocacy is a special type of guardianship for developmentally disabled adults.
We handle guardianship and guardian advocacy. If you are interested in learning about the process and whether it is necessary for a family member or loved one, please contact the office to schedule a consultation.

DIY “will” websites can be tempting—much like trying to diagnose an illness with “Dr. Google”—but the results aren’t always reliable. Every person’s situation is different, and there is no one-size-fits-all will.

DIY “will” websites can be tempting—much like trying to diagnose an illness with “Dr. Google”—but the results aren’t always reliable. Every person’s situation is different, and there is no one-size-fits-all will.
Florida law has specific requirements for a will to be valid, including how it must be signed and witnessed. If those requirements aren’t met, the will may be partially or completely invalid, meaning assets could be distributed as if no will existed. Even small mistakes can complicate probate, delay distributions, increase costs, and open the door to challenges that undermine your final wishes.
Trying to save money now by using a DIY will often results in your heirs spending far more later—or worse, your wishes not being carried out at all. Online tools may provide general information, but there is no substitute for speaking with an experienced estate planning attorney who can ensure your will is legally sound and tailored to your circumstances.

The Florida Rescue Farm in Duette provides a home and safe shelter for unwanted farm animals. They adopt animals that have been surrendered by their owners or animals that have been abandoned and are found by concerned individuals or by other animal rescue organizations. To assist in sustainability we also rehome some of these animals to carefully screened families. The farm offers sanctuary to chickens, ducks, geese, goats, cattle and other livestock. For more information or to arrange a tour, please email info@floridarescuefarm.org or call (941) 209-9558.
