Guiding Florida Clients through Estate Planning and Administration
When a person dies in Florida without an estate plan in place, it is up to the state to determine how everything should be handled. At the law office of Jack Wm. Windt, we have spent over 40 years helping families and individuals resolve their estate planning and probate concerns.

Creating the Right Estate Plan for You
Every adult should have an estate plan. At our firm, we know that everyone has different situations, and we will work with you to develop the right estate plan for you. With the right estate plan, you can accomplish many goals, such as:
- Name a guardian to care for minor children in your will
- Outline how your assets should be distributed in your will
- Protect assets through revocable and irrevocable trusts
- Provide charitable gifts and plan for long-term philanthropic matters
- Make your wishes known regarding end-of-life care in your living will (healthcare directive)
- Name people you trust to make decisions on your behalf through healthcare and financial powers of attorney
Most importantly, the right estate plan can give you peace of mind because your loved ones and your assets will be protected. We will take the time to listen to your concerns and develop an estate planning strategy that meets your unique needs.
