Understanding Summary Administration

Summary administration is a streamlined Florida probate procedure. It may be available when the value of the estate subject to administration in Florida, less exempt property, does not exceed $75,000, or when the decedent has been dead for more than two years. Qualification alone does not resolve every issue. The will, family relationships, debts, homestead, and each asset must still be reviewed.

How We Help

Evaluate eligibility and whether summary administration is practical.

Review the will, death certificate, assets, debts, heirs, and beneficiaries.

Prepare the petition, supporting documents, waivers, notices, and proposed orders.

Address homestead and creditor issues when applicable.

Help beneficiaries use the final order to collect or transfer awarded assets.

What to Bring to Your Consultation

Death certificate and original will, if any.
Asset statements, deeds, and estimated date-of-death values.
Names and addresses of heirs, beneficiaries, and known creditors.
Funeral and last-illness expense information.

Do not delay contacting the firm simply because some documents are missing. We can help identify what is needed and organize the next steps.
