Our firm focuses a significant portion of our practice in the areas of Florida Estate Planning and Probate Law. We provide our Clients with custom estate planning solutions that fit their family and wealth preservation goals. If you fail to create an estate plan, the State of Florida will decide how your assets are going to be distributed through the Probate process.
In addition to Florida Probate Administration, our firm is actively involved in the litigation of Probate disputes. These types of actions can include Will Contests, Objections to Probate Administration, Trust Contests, and Actions to Remove the Appointed Personal Representative, Life Insurance disputes and litigation involving Creditor Claims.
In contrast to Summary Administration, Florida's Formal Administration probate procedure is required for estates larger than $75,000.00 and when the decedent has been passed for less than two years.
Although not always required, Formal Administration is a good idea to invoke when you have more complicated estates, challenges to creditor claims and can be easier if your estate requires that you work closely with third parties (examples include foreclosure, insurance related issues etc.).

Florida law gives interested parties the ability to challenge the validity of the last will and testament being offered for Probate Administration. If you think that the last will and testament being offered to probate was procured by fraud, duress, trickery or any unethical means you have rights. These types of challenges are commonly referred to as will contests.

The passing of any loved one is a very emotional and trying time. Dealing with the 'system's' probate requirement merely amplified the ordeal. I reached out to several attorneys in my area. Brice immediately responded by phone personally and gave the best answers to all my questions and concerns. More than once. I am very glad I went with their firm. Upon meeting them I was left with no doubt that I had made the right decision. The office personnel I was assigned to was on top of things and acted quickly to get the process started and finished ahead of schedule. And readily available to respond

I am very grateful that I found Zoecklein Law firm in Tampa. I had been going back and forth for over two years in a legal matter with a different attorney in Tampa and as soon as I decided to switch law firms and have Brice handle things for me it was all settled in less than a year! I would highly recommended as he was very professional, responsive, and always kept me in the loop. I cannot thank them enough for helping me!

Attorney Zoecklein is an excellent attorney. He really cares about his clients. He always returned my calls & emails and he is very fast with his processing his claims. Several attorneys turn me down when I was trying to seek an attorney. Attorney Zoecklein was the only attorney who took my case and made my family and I very proud from the outcome!

I am very pleased with the work I received from this Law firm. Brice is very knowledgeable and he cares about his clients, he takes the time to explain every aspect of your case and keeps you informed of all actions. My husband and I were very scared about our situation and Brice was very patient and understanding and with the outcome of our case he proved he is a very good lawyer and is very good at what he does. I would highly recommend him to anybody. Thanks, M
