  • So you and your family are living in
    Bradenton, Florida. The sun is shining and life
    seems like it will never end. Unfortunately, it
    eventually will. But lets not get too dark here!
    A loss of life doesnt have to be something to be
    fearful of. If you want whats best for your
    family after your death, then hiring an estate
    planning attorney should be the first thing that
    you do. So stop what youre doing and call an
    estate planning attorney right now! But in all
    seriousness, if you have assets that you want to
    be left in the right hands, then getting together
    with an estate planning attorney, even when you
    are alive and well is a very important decision.

So what exactly is an estate planning attorney?
  • An estate planning attorney is someone who
    will handle all the legal issues that come after
    death. Death is an unfortunate thing, but
    planning while youre still alive is a must-do if
    you want to ensure that the right people handle
    your estate. An estate can be anything from your
    house, your assets, and so on. There are even
    legal issues regarding how you as a person will
    be handled medically if you become ill and cannot
    speak for yourself.

So do I really need an estate planning attorney?
  • Estate planning may seem like an easy thing
    to do but when it comes to state laws such as in
    Bradenton, Florida, things can be a little
    tricky. State laws govern what is allowed and not
    in a will, trust or financial power of attorney.
    These laws also specify who can witness the
    documents and what formalities must be followed
    when they are signed. Most of the time, it is up
    to the state to decide who can serve as a
    trustee, personal representative, health care
    surrogate, or attorney-in-fact.

  • A Florida personal representative must be
    either related to you through blood, marriage or
    be qualified under state law. A state resident
    must also be present at the time you die.
  • Many people try to place representatives in
    the absence of this law. These non-residents or
    non-relatives cannot serve in Florida.
  • It is important to work with an estate
    planning attorney who is qualified. This will
    help you avoid making costly mistakes like these.
