Wills, Trusts, Probate, and Medicaid Planning in Miami Gardens
Losing a loved one is never easy, and navigating the legal process that follows can make it even more challenging. In South Florida, probate administration can be a complex and demanding experience, especially during a time of grief. If you are in Miami Gardens, our experienced probate attorneys are here to take that burden off your shoulders, ensuring your inheritance is managed with care and expertise.
Whether you lost a parent, sibling, or other loved one, our team of experienced trust and estates lawyers – including Fernando Orrego and Natasha Chipiga – will be by your side throughout this entire process: providing legal counsel, handling paperwork, communicating with the probate court and interested parties, and ensuring that your loved one’s estate is administered efficiently in accordance with Florida probate laws. Our goal is to make this process as smooth and stress-free for you as possible.
Whether your loved one died with a valid Last Will and Testament (‘will”) or died without a will, OC Estate & Elder Law can help. When someone passes away with a will, it is referred to as a testate estate, and when someone passes away without a will, this is called an intestate estate.
You might be wondering how to sell your dead parents’ home or how to sell your mom’s house. Unfortunately, you cannot just find a realtor and list the property – because in most cases, the home is still titled in the deceased person’s name. You will need to handle this sale of real estate through a court-supervised process called Probate Administration or Summary Administration. We will prepare the Petition for Summary Administration and provide you with an Order for Summary Administration or Letters of Administration. Along the way, we will appoint you as Personal Representative of the estate and assist you with your testate or intestate estate from start to finish.
For more than ten years, we have proudly served the South Florida community, earning a strong reputation for our speed, efficiency, and approachable service. We have guided hundreds of families through the probate process and are committed to making Florida’s complex probate administration process and summary administration process clear and manageable for you.
In addition to probate, we also assist with long-term planning services such as setting up revocable trusts and irrevocable trusts, asset protection, and estate planning for young families, including strategies for planning for your children’s education or paying for college.
