The TRU Legal Difference

Get a proper comprehensive strategy
to handle your Legacy

Proper estate planning in Florida requires far more than standardized online forms. It demands a strategic, customized organization of your wealth.

DIY documents routinely fail in Florida probate court because of strict witness and notary rules. We make sure your plan is legally bulletproof, tax-efficient, and perfectly aligned with Florida law — and we explain every decision in language you can actually understand.

An estate plan with your voice in it.
Common Questions

Estate Planning FAQ

Can estate planning help me avoid probate in Florida?
Yes. A properly funded Revocable Living Trust lets your family bypass Florida probate entirely — keeping the transfer private, faster, and far less expensive than the court-supervised process, which often takes six to twelve months or more.
What documents are included in a Florida estate plan?
A robust plan typically includes a Last Will & Testament, a Revocable Living Trust, a Durable Power of Attorney, a Health Care Surrogate designation, and a Living Will. We tailor the exact mix to your family and assets.
Do I really need an estate planning attorney?
Yes. Online forms often fail in Florida probate courts due to strict execution requirements. An attorney ensures your documents are valid, tax-efficient, and aligned with current Florida law — and that they actually do what you intend.
When is the right time to start?
Now. Every adult over 18 should have basic incapacity documents, and a full plan becomes critical the moment you buy real estate, marry, start a business, or have children.
