There is summary probate in Fl for estates under 75,000. Under certain circumstances the homestead is not counted as part of the 75000. An attorney is not needed.
Assets can avoid probate if the title to the assets is a transfer on death or the assets has a beneficiary. These are usually financial accounts. Best to discuss with an estate planning attorney.
