Wills and Estates

This bill updates Florida laws regarding wills, estates, and the handling of community property acquired by married couples. It expands the types of probate documents that must be recorded with the clerk of the circuit and clarifies which assets count toward a person's probate estate. The legislation also establishes specific rules for waiving a surviving spouse's rights to community property, requiring written agreements with particular language to be valid. Additionally, it sets a strict deadline for filing lawsuits related to these property disputes and removes certain legal duties to search for specific types of property.
