What happens with a non probated will?

David Goldman

Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of David M. Goldman PLLC
If there are no assets subject to probate, it doesn't matter what the will states. You are suppose to file a wlll with the court within 10 days of death, but there is no penalty unless someone complains.

If the power of attorney expires when my father passed away, who is to sign the quick claim deed to transfer my father’s home ownership and title?

Michael Charles Doland
Answered by attorney Michael Charles Doland (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Doland & Fraade
If the beneficiary was a joint tenant, then a notice of death of joint tenant would probably suffice. If the beneficiary was a tenant in common, or if title was only in the deceased, then a probate would be required to transfer title.

How should insurance benefits be handled by an estate?

David Goldman
Answered by attorney David Goldman
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of David M. Goldman PLLC
While paying them directly to the beneficiaries generally shelters them from the creditors of the estate, it can subject them to the creditors of the beneficiaries. You should discuss the options with Florida Estate Planning Lawyer to determine which is best for you and your beneficiaries given your current and likely future situation.
