Moved to Florida? Your estate plan may need a review.
1. An out-of-state will may still be valid in Florida, but Florida has its own rules for wills and estate administration.
2. Moving states can be a good time to review your trust, its governing law, and how your assets are titled.
3. A power of attorney from another state might still be recognized in Florida, but it should be reviewed for Florida-specific requirements.
4. Florida homestead protections can affect more than property taxes—they can also impact your home and how it passes after death.
5. How your property and other assets are titled can affect how they are transferred, regardless of what your will says.
6. Florida has unique rules involving homestead, spouses, probate, wills, trusts, and powers of attorney.
