What's a Lady Bird deed, and is it a good idea for me?
An Enhanced Life Estate Deed (or Lady Bird Deed) can be a game changer if you want your loved ones to avoid the sizable costs and delays of probate without the expense of a trust. Is it right for you? Call us at (941) 251-6030, or email us at grivaslaw@gmail.com to set up a free consultation. Help us protect what's yours.
What's a Homestead, and how do I get one?
We're often asked about Homesteads, what protections they provide and how to get one. You get valuable tax breaks and protection from creditors. I walk you through what you need to get to your Property Appraiser (manateepao.com for Manatee County, sc-pa.com for Sarasota County) to prove your primary residence as of January 1. You must get it to them by March 1 in order to get the homestead for that year. Please call or email us if you have any questions. It would be our pleasure to help.
What's a Will? Why do I need one?
Two of the most common questions we get are "What's a Will?" and "Why do I need one?" A will is your last chance to tell the Probate Court what you want to be done with your possessions and who you want managing your final affairs when you pass. Without a will, the Court has to guess what you want done with your legacy. Email us at grivaslaw@gmail.com or call us at (941) 251-6030 for more information and a free consultation.
