Probate Lawyers Serving All Counties
Since 1999, our probate lawyers and paralegals have supported thousands of clients with compassionate assistance, providing significant savings for many estates exceeding $250,000. We specialize in assisting executors with uncontested probate administration across all counties in Florida. Based in Pensacola, we handle estates in all 67 counties of the Sunshine State. Given the varying challenges and requirements in each county, our pricing is tailored to the specific work needed, not the estate's value.
For estates needing probate administration in Fort Lauderdale, Orlando, Sarasota, Fort Myers, or West Palm Beach, Statewide Probate offers assistance to executors, known as "personal representatives" in Florida, providing clear guidance and cost-effective solutions. Our statewide reach is possible because uncontested estates do not require the executor or attorney to physically appear in court. This means the personal representative does not need to reside in Florida, and the attorney does not need to be located near the courthouse.
Choose Statewide Probate for your Florida probate needs and avoid unnecessary extra fees.
Offering Reasonable Attorney Fees for Florida Probate Cases
In Florida, probate lawyers can charge fees up to 3% of the estate's value. This can result in executors paying fees that may seem excessive for the required work, such as $15,000 for assisting in transferring $500,000 in assets or $30,000 for transferring $1 million in assets. At our firm, we do not charge 3% for our probate and estate services. Instead, our fees are based on hourly rates or flat fees, depending on the work your estate needs.
