Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Florida

Florida requires two witnesses and notarization to be a self-proving will. If the assets you have purchased change your Estate planning, then you would need a new will.

I strongly recommend you consult with an Estate Planning attorney in Florida. Although the will made in New York is technically valid if executed properly, several assets have changed. It may be wise to do a Living Trust since you own property rights in multiple states, but that decision should not be made until an attorney thoroughly evaluates your estate. If you decide to do a Living Trust, make sure you use an experienced attorney familiar with Florida Estate planning to ensure the trust is done properly and you don't jeopardize invalidating any benefits (e.g., homestead rights).
