Ancillary Probate

---

If a non-resident of Florida dies leaving assets in Florida, an ancillary probate 

proceeding in Florida may be necessary to dispose of the Florida property. 

The Florida ancillary probate proceeding is subject to Florida law and is brought 

secondary to the estate proceeding in the decedent’s state of domicile (the 

decedent’s state of residence). Our ancillary probate services assist out of state 

attorneys and estate representatives with administration regarding a decedent's 

property and assets located within the State of Florida.
