: Florida Estate Planning Lawyer BlogFlorida Elective Share Litigation
By David M. Goldman
In Florida, a surviving spouse is usually entitled to take an elective share of their spouse's estate. This is to prevent one spouse from disinheriting the other. Unless there is a valid Prenuptial or Post Nuptial agreement in place, the surviving spouse is entitled to take 30% of the spouses entire elective estate.
Florida Statute § 732.2035 describes what property is included in the elective share of the decedent's estate.
There are time requirements on filing for an elective share and failure to timely file may result in waiver of this option. To evaluate the effects of electing a Florida Elective Share, Contact a Florida Estate Planning Lawyer who is familiar with Florida Elective Share Litigation.
