Legal Answers
590 Questions Answered
Q. How can my friend prove ownership of Florida land without a copy of her late husband's Will?
A: This is a Florida Probate Matter, you will need to get a Florida Probate Attorney to pursue some version of probate in Florida, if a probate was already done in another state previously, an ancillary probate will be required in Florida for the property. A copy of the deed will also be helpful to review, but you are looking at an intestate probate (without a Will) and where the Florida intestate statutes will apply. The precise type of probate required will depend on the type of assets and their overall value that have to be probated in Florida, if the property is under $75,000 then a Summary Administration Probate may be able to be used, usually faster and more efficient.
Q. Insurance company won't reissue refund check for deceased brother. What are my options?
A: I am sorry for your loss of your brother, please accept my condolences. You will have to reopen probate and then you will be able to address this via the probate court. The fee to reopen probate is minimal.
Q. Can Florida take my paid house if I default on my car loan?
A: If it is your Homestead property, then the answer is NO. If ti is some other property, issues and problems are likely to arise if they get a judgment, the Florida Constitution protects Homestead property from most creditor claims, such as credit cards, car loans and numerous others.
