William Fambrough May 2, 2023
The top 10 reasons I highly recommend Mr. Phillip William Gunthert, Esq. Mr. Gunthert went above and beyond what was required to make sure my Florida Probates'; i’s were dotted and t’s were crossed, which is very important in Florida. Mr. Gunthert took the time to thoroughly explain all my options. Then he asked the pertinent questions he needed answered to provide what he considered would be the best option for my situation. With a thorough explanation on why he felt that way, I was very confident in his suggestion. The truth is, while Mr. Gunthert’s suggestion was great for my situation, it was not the best option for his bottom line. But I don’t think that mattered. It seemed Mr. Gunthert was more concerned with my welfare than his own. I am not saying Mr. Gunthert works for free, he would go out of business. What I contend is that he will always; always; suggest what is in the best interest of his client. That is how all businesses should be. But this is so rare nowadays, I am overwhelmed with gratitude. In my book, you will not find any better representation than Mr. Phillip William Gunthert, Esq.

Legal Answers
490 Questions Answered
Q. Father passes wife alive with 3 adult children but one passed away leaving 2 adult children & husband. Division? No will
A: I am very sorry for your loss and please accept my condolences for you and your family. When there is no Will, then the Florida Intestate Statutes (without a Will) will apply. If all the children are from this marriage, then the surviving spouse inherits everything. You will need to speak with a Florida Probate Attorney, and they will need to review any deed and any transfers, any assets in the name of the deceased father will be probated and end up going to the spouse/wife. If the children are not from the same marriage, this will change to a certain degree. A spouse has substantial rights always unless they sign some sort of pre or postnuptial agreement or otherwise have signed on to any property transfers via deed or otherwise. You will need to provide more details and specifics of the circumstances and then a probate attorney will be able to better advise you with more precise answers and how probate property distribution will work. ...

Q. My home deed has a different last name than my Florida drivers license license is in birth name addresses match ss numbe
A: You will need to get your driver license updated to match the name on the deed, your current legal name, both need to be in your current and correct legal name, obviously, the easiest and fastest is to update your license if you can and this should solve your problem. The same would go for any deed if you needed to update the name on a property deed, but before you do that, you would need to speak with a real estate attorney and all parties involved so that you understand the consequences of any such changes on a deed and how to properly do it based on your circumstances.
Q. DOES SOMEONE WHO MOVED TO FLORIDA BUT ONLY HAS ASSETS IN PUERTO RICO NEED TO ABIDE BY FLORIDA INHERITANCE LAWS OR ONLY P
A: Generally, any assets and real estate in Florida will be handled in accordance with Florida Law and any assets in Puerto Rico will be handled in accordance with Puerto Laws if a probate ever becomes necessary at some point. The main probate will be done in the state where the person is a resident (where their Homestead is) and an ancillary probate will need to be done in any state or location where they have property and assets. It would be recommended and worthwhile speaking with a Florida Probate Attorney no matter what, because if the person is living in Florida and or this is where their Homestead is located or is the state where they are considered to be a resident, they will want to make sure they have estate planning documents set up in accordance with Florida Law (this is especially true for things like Power of Attorney, Florida Healthcare Surrogate, Living Will, Will amongst others) because Florida has various special requirements and protections that apply to a variety of things. ...
