We're Often Asked:

What is trust administration and do I need an attorney for it?

Trust administration is the legal process of managing and distributing a trust's assets after the creator of the trust passes away. While it isn't always required to hire an attorney, Florida trust law can be complex — working with a trust attorney like those at BridgeTRUST helps ensure assets are distributed correctly, taxes are handled properly, and beneficiaries' rights are protected.

What's the difference between probate and trust administration in Florida?

Probate is the court-supervised process for distributing assets that were owned in a person's name alone at death. Trust administration, by contrast, happens outside of court and can be faster and more private. BridgeTRUST handles both, guiding families through whichever process applies to their situation.

What happens if there's a dispute over a trust or estate in Florida?

Trust and estate disputes — such as challenges to a will, trustee misconduct, or disagreements among beneficiaries — often require litigation. BridgeTRUST's attorneys represent beneficiaries, trustees, and personal representatives in these disputes, working to protect their clients' rights and resolve conflicts efficiently.
