When someone passes away, a Florida probate will likely follow.
Essentially, probate is the court-supervised process of authenticating someone's last will and testament.
Someone who has an interest in a Florida estate can start the probate process by filing the necessary "petition for administration" with the proper court clerk, which would be in the Florida county where the person died or where the assets are located.
Drafting your final will and testament doesn't let you avoid the probate process.

A Florida power of attorney is a legal document that allows you to delegate authority to someone else.
The person granting the power is the principal and gives someone else the right to act on his or her behalf as an agent.
What you grant attorney for will vary depending on the specific language including in the power of attorney document.
It can be very broad or narrow and limited to only a few acts.
You can tailor the power of attorney to allow the agent to handle a number of legal issues, not just these listed here.
