LegalDraft · Florida

Florida estate planning and probate live on EstateDraftFL.com.

Wills, living trusts, powers of attorney, health care directives, and the Florida probate documents are prepared on our Florida estate site, not here. This page keeps the Florida tools that stay on LegalDraft: the probate rules stated generally, the civil deadline calculator, and the court-readiness guides.

Estate planning & probate

Wills, trusts, deeds, and the other estate documents are prepared on our estate sites.

Wills, living trusts, powers of attorney, health care directives, guardian and preneed designations, HIPAA releases, deeds, and prenuptial agreements are not prepared on LegalDraft. They are the estate sites’ — separate platforms from the same family, built for estate planning, deeds, and probate — and the probate documents live beside them.

The documents this covers: Last Will & Testament · Revocable Living Trust · Financial Power of Attorney (Durable) · Advance Healthcare Directive & Living Will · preneed-guardian · hipaa-release · lady-bird-deed · companion-will · pour-over-will · Guardianship Designation for Minor Children · Prenuptial Agreement · Quitclaim Deed

Separate sites from the same family of platforms, linked with attribution — LegalDraft hosts none of their data and prepares none of their documents.

Facing a Florida court matter?

Free, plain-language checklists to get organized for the most common civil matters — answering a debt lawsuit, responding to an eviction, small claims, and fee waivers — with the official forms and legal-aid referrals. Self-help information, not a filing service.

Florida probate: the general rules here, the filings on EstateDraftFL.com

Every administration path with its statutory conditions, and the rules every Florida administration answers to, stated generally and cited. The probate filings themselves are prepared on EstateDraftFL.com.

Twelve probate filings, assembled the deterministic way

Each filing below is a parameterized, attorney-reviewable template with statute and Probate Rule hooks — the model never authors the operative text. They assemble inside the packet flow (the engine decides the document set per administration path), not the generic drafting picker, and every one is a draft for licensed-attorney review and filing — the platform does not file.
