Wills and Probate

What is a will?
A written direction controlling the disposition of property at death. In Florida, you must be of sound mind, 18 years of age, and the will has to be in writing and signed in the presence of two witnesses and a notary.
What happens if I don't have will?
Your property will be distributed to your heirs, according to a formula fixed by law. Property does not go to the State of Florida unless there are no heirs at law. The cost of probating may be greater than if you had planned your estate with a will.
What is a living will?
A living will is a document that directs the withholding or withdrawal of life prolonging procedures in the event one should have a terminal condition. It must be signed in the presence of two witnesses and notary.
