How to Choose a Florida Probate Lawyer: Our Guide

Choosing the right Florida probate lawyer can be a complicated process. In this brief, yet informative guide, we’ll be going over all of the various aspects of finding the best Florida probate lawyer for your unique case and how we at Lorenzo Law may be able to help you.

Search Online

First start with an online search for “probate lawyer [city]” and see what comes up in the search results. From there, you can gain an idea of which legal services are available in your area. 

Ask Around

Asking family, friends, or colleagues for recommendations may also be a good place to start with your search for a probate lawyer in Florida. Sometimes, the best recommendations come from those you already trust.

Look Up Your Questions & See if They Have Content Answering Said Questions

A great probate law firm in Florida will have a steady flow of content being produced and published on their site for users to read when searching for answers to their questions. If you search for an answer to your question, and a law firm in your area has created a piece of content, such as a blog post, answering your question; you may want to reach out to that specific law firm.

Read Reviews

Read the reviews of the probate law firm you’re interested in working with. Do the reviews seem legitimate? If so, great. Does the probate law firm have several one or two-star reviews? Maybe read into why the users are complaining about the law firm’s services. If there are glaring issues, you’ll want to avoid that probate law firm and find another law firm to work with.

Interview the Potential Probate Lawyer

The probate lawyer is working for you, so you should therefore be comfortable asking questions regarding your case and be willing to expect competent answers. If there’s a lot of vagueness with the potential probate lawyer’s responses, you’ll want to find someone else. A good probate lawyer is direct and communicates clearly. You’ll find these positive attributes with Lorenzo Law when you contact us.

Ask About Fees for Services Rendered

Yes, some cases will require much more work than other cases, yet there should still be an agreed upon hourly rate or initial retainer set forth from the beginning. This way, there’s no confusion about fees and services rendered when it comes time for final payment.

Go with Your Gut Instinct

You may have a good feeling when you speak with a probate lawyer, and you may have a bad feeling when you speak with a probate lawyer. It’s often best to not only read reviews and discuss overall fees, but also go with your gut feeling when making a final decision on the probate lawyer you end up working with.
