I have a trust but would like to make some changes, can this be done?

Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
You can change attorneys, without any problem. Whether or not you can amend the terms of the trust depends on the terms of your trust. It would be relatively unusual for the trust to be irrevocable, but it is possible. Someone would need to review the terms of your trust to tell you. I would be willing to review your trust at no charge. If it can be amended, the changes you are talking about could easily be made. Please feel free to contact me if you have additional questions or if you would like to schedule a consultation.

Is there any way I can legally steal condemned land that is deemed useless by the government?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Phillip Gustavo Day (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Offices of Phillip Day, P.L.
Stealing is not legal in any State of the Union. So no, there is no such thing as "legally stealing." You may want to consider speaking to an experienced Real Estate lawyer and ask about Adverse Possession laws and how one can legally take possession of property but I will forewarn you that the hurdles to adversely acquire property are huge. It may be cheaper to simply make an offer on the property and see if you get lucky.

What type of law firm specializes in all-inclusive estate services, like taking care of taxes, paying bills, sale of house & belongings, etc.?

Christopher Kennedy Caswell
Answered by attorney Christopher Kennedy Caswell (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Christopher K. Caswell, P.A.
While some law firms might take on those services, normally that sort of transactional detail will have the personal representative or executor (or trustee if that is how the assets are held) take the lead in gathering and liquidating the assets of an estate. However, the personal representative or executor will usually hire professionals to do the specific necessary services, such as an attorney to do the required court filings, an accountant to make the required tax filings and perhaps a real estate agent to help with the sale of real property. An alternative is to name an institutional personal representative or executor (such as a large bank with trust powers or even a private trust company) and they might be willing to handle that level of detail, although it is likely they will also hire ancillary professionals to help them do that. This is specific to Florida law and does not constitute legal advice as the facts presented are anonymous and incomplete. This is intended for general education only and does not create an attorney-client relationship. This should not be relied on and you must seek your own attorney client relationship.
