Your estate plan isn't broken.
But it might be quietly out of date. 💛

A plan that felt complete five years ago may not protect your family the way you think it does today. Here's what changed in 2026 that Florida families should know about:

✅ The federal estate and gift tax exemption jumped to $15 million per person — meaning old tax-planning language in your trust might now be creating complications instead of solving them.

✅ ABLE account eligibility expanded from age 26 to age 46. If someone you love has a disability, this is a meaningful door that just opened.

✅ The SSI rule that counted food as in-kind support is gone — a real shift for families managing Special Needs Trusts.

✅ Florida homestead law can override what your will says about your home. Plans drafted in other states often miss this entirely.

✅ Outdated beneficiary designations can override everything else — sending money to an ex-spouse, an estranged sibling, or accidentally knocking a loved one off SSI or Medicaid.

The good news? Small updates now prevent big problems later. We help Florida families review what they have, identify the gaps, and put together a plan that actually fits the life you're living today — not the one you were living in 2018.

"Where there's a will, there's a relative." 😄
Most of us sign an estate plan once, tuck it away, and don't think about it again — which is completely understandable, and also exactly how a plan ends up reflecting a version of your life that no longer exists.

Our new article is a quick, lightly funny read about why estate plans quietly go out of date — and why "still works" isn't the same as "still works well."

🎨 April is Autism Acceptance Month
Every brushstroke tells a story. Every child — neurodivergent or not — deserves the space, tools, and support to create their own future.

This month is about more than awareness. It's about acceptance — recognizing that autistic individuals bring unique strengths, perspectives, and brilliance to the world. And it's about making sure the families who love them have a plan that protects that future.

At Legally Remote, PLLC, we help families build thoughtful, personalized special needs plans — including Special Needs Trusts, guardianship planning, and long-term care strategies — so your loved one is cared for long after you're able to be there yourself.

One of the most meaningful ways to honor this month? Invest in a plan. Peace of mind is one of the greatest gifts you can give your family.
