Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Florida

Good question. If the documents were validly executed in Illinois, then they will be valid in Florida. It is always a good idea, however, to have your documents reviewed every few years or upon a life changing event, such as a birth, death, marriage, moving, etc. Also, while your trust and will may be valid, other ancillary documents such as durable powers of attorney, living wills, designations of a health care surrogate should be updated to reflect correct contact information for your designees. If I can be of any assistance in this, please give my office a call.

That's difficult to answer. If they were prepared by an attorney in Illinois and were valid there, then they should be valid here. It is not unusual to have to revise documents every few years as your circumstances change. So, you may want an attorney to review them and advise you of any other documents you should have.
