Experienced Legal Help Through the Florida Probate or Estate Administration Process
One of the challenges of wrapping up an estate after the death of a loved one is that these legal details need to be handled fairly soon after the funeral, a time when many people feel exhausted or numbed by grief. Add to the emotional difficulty the fact that many executors and personal representatives have never been through the probate process before and it can feel overwhelming.
At The Charles Law Offices, we provide a wide range of probate services in Florida to meet the needs of local and out-of-state executors and personal representatives, heirs and beneficiaries. From advice and legal filings to the sale of a home and distribution of property, we can ensure a smooth transfer of assets and efficient handling of any legal issues that might arise in probate or estate administration.
Probate lawyer Susan M. Charles has extensive experience handling Florida probate matters for estates with or without a will, and estate administration if the deceased had established one or more trusts. Susan M. Charles can serve as attorney to the trustee or she can serve in the role of successor trustee.
The Charles Law Offices represents clients throughout the Tampa Bay area, statewide in Florida, and out of state for Florida estates. Call 866.607.6531 or contact us online to discuss arrangements with an experienced estate and trust administration lawyer.
