How Can Non-Florida Family Members Find and Interview an Agressive Florida Probate Law Firm?

When searching for a probate law firm in Florida, non-Florida family members should educate themselves on what to look for. For one, you need to find out whether the probate law firm you are interviewing is asked to represent families and beneficiaries all over Florida. Many West Palm Beach law firms only handle cases that are located near their office. However, at Pankauski Hauser PLLC, we handle cases state-wide. Second, you want a firm with a focused specialization. You want your lawyers to be extremely knowledgeable about Florida’s Probate Code, and to have a passion for trust and estates. In addition, you want to find out if the firm is comprised of aggressive probate litigation lawyers. Not all West Palm Beach wills lawyers are litigators. What does this mean? This means that not all probate lawyers handle trials. Some probate attorneys only administer estates. However, if you are looking to contest a Florida will or to sue a Florida trustee, you need an aggressive, yet professional, litigator! Ask the law firm you are interviewing what their trial experience is. Are they comfortable giving an opening statement and fighting for you in front of a probate judge? You may also want to find out how many years the partners at the law firm have been practicing with a focus in probate litigation. It can be extremely beneficial to work with a lawyer with over twenty years of experience who has litigated numerous relevant matters.

If you are looking to interview a probate law firm that is willing to handle trust and estates litigation anywhere in Florida, please interview Pankauski Hauser PLLC. Our managing partner would love to speak with you personally.
