FAQ
How long do I have to contest a will in Florida?
Generally, you have 90 days from receiving the Notice of Administration to file a will contest. If you receive a formal notice earlier, the deadline can be as short as 20 days.
What is undue influence in a will contest?
Undue influence occurs when someone uses their power or position to substitute their wishes for the true intent of the person making the will. Common red flags include isolation of the decedent, drastic changes to prior estate plans, and involvement of a beneficiary in creating the will.
