Estate Planning for "The Most Fun Small Town in America"

Delray Beach has earned its reputation as one of America's most livable small towns—a place where you can walk to dinner on Atlantic Avenue, bike to the beach, and know your neighbors. Whether you chose Delray for its arts scene, its beaches, its tennis community, or simply its welcoming spirit, your estate plan should protect the lifestyle you've built.

Delray's mix of historic cottages, waterfront estates, downtown condos, and golf course communities means no two estates look alike. A couple in a Pineapple Grove townhouse has different needs than a family in Lake Ida or retirees in a Delray Beach Club condo. We take the time to understand your specific situation and craft a plan that fits your life.

Just 10 minutes from our Boca Raton office, Delray Beach residents enjoy convenient access to Board Certified estate planning expertise—without the drive to West Palm Beach.

Our services include living trusts that avoid Florida probate on your Delray home, wills tailored to your family structure, powers of attorney for financial and medical decisions, and planning for seasonal residents who split time between Delray and elsewhere.

Whether you're a longtime Delray resident or recently discovered this gem, we're here to help protect what you've built.

Questions from Delray Beach Residents

Common questions from our Delray neighbors about estate planning.

Seasonal residency creates important planning considerations. Where is your legal domicile? Do you own property in both states? Which state's laws should govern your estate? We help snowbirds structure their plans to take advantage of Florida's favorable estate laws while ensuring their northern properties and relationships are properly addressed. Our dual FL/NY licensure is particularly helpful here.
If you own any Florida real estate—including a condo—a trust is almost always worthwhile. Without one, your heirs face Florida probate: 6-12 months minimum, attorney fees based on asset value, and everything becoming public record. A trust avoids all of this, allowing your condo to transfer immediately and privately to your beneficiaries. For property owners, it's generally the smart choice.
Not at all. The initial consultation takes about an hour, and we handle everything from there. Most plans are completed in 2-3 weeks with minimal time required from you. Once your trust is in place, you can get back to tennis, the beach, or whatever brings you joy in Delray—knowing your affairs are in order.
Significant changes in asset values are a good reason to review your plan. Your distribution percentages may no longer align with your intentions, and estate tax considerations may have changed. We recommend reviewing your plan whenever major financial changes occur, or at least every 3-5 years. We're happy to review your existing documents and suggest updates if needed.

Protect Your Delray Beach Lifestyle

Your family is dear to us; we are intentional in how we formulate the estate plan which will ultimately provide peace and security to your loved ones. We look forward to working closely with you to create the solution that best serves your needs.
