What Is Estate Administration?
Estate administration refers to the legal process of managing and distributing a deceased person’s assets, paying their debts, and resolving any outstanding legal matters. It involves:
- Identifying and inventorying the estate’s assets.
- Paying debts, taxes, and administrative expenses.
- Distributing remaining assets to beneficiaries or heirs.
Whether the decedent left a will (testate) or not (intestate), the process must comply with Florida’s estate laws. Our team at Dixon Law Firm ensures that every aspect of estate administration is handled with precision and care.
