Is Everyboy Lined Up? Clients tell us disgusting tales of family members counting their inheritance on the way to the funeral………. Or over the casket at the gravesite Others tell of everyone lined up for their inheritance
Is Probate Stressful? Clients tell us it is Why? Money, emotions, misfits, trusts, questions… Where’s all the money? Probate should NOT be scary
Who Will Support You? Who will support you before and after the trial? Through negotiations? Mediation?
Most of you know me as a probate trial lawyer, trying inheritance cases from Palm Beach Gardens to Delray Beach. I also love to travel and love all things Italian. (They do so much right ! Art, food, wine, cars, fashion ….) Our West Palm Beach probate law firm spends a lot of time in the probate court, but we also eat and drink too much coffee. Most of the time, we are eating between court appearances, client meetings or probate research on Clematis Street. We go to the Starbucks on Clematis a lot: it’s literally around the corner from our West Palm Beach probate litigation law firm.
A recent Palm Beach Post story highlights probate litigation involving a wealthy Palm Beach socialite and her son. Sadly, the son and mother are engaged in probate lawsuits over inheritances, real estate, trusts and money.
There are many great estate planning attorneys in Palm Beach and from Jupiter to Boca Raton. Many write or “draft” Florida wills & revocable trusts for wealthy clients. Many Palm Beach estate planning attorneys, indeed their clients, know who is going to file a will contest in the Palm Beach probate court.

A Palm Beach probate appeals court just handed down, two days ago, a ruling that one’s cremated ashes are not “property” under the Florida Probate Code. This probate case from the Delray Beach Courthouse dealt with two parents who could not agree on where to lay their son’s ashes, after the son was cremated.
