Thank you there is nothing like feeling unsure of yourself.. didn’t used to feel this way, but I do now.

I was merely told that it was office policy. Lady Bird deeds are legal in Florida so it surprised me that they wouldn't do it.

I thought that it might be because drafting a will or a trust is more lucrative for the firm than drafting a Lady Bird deed.

I used attorney Judit Karpati for a simple will and lady bird deed. Her assistant is Valerie Williams.

Bottom line IMO if you only got one child do the ladybird deed yourself. If you got godzillions and several children that would fight over every dime then you NEED lawyer. 20 bucks or vs couple grand.

P.S just added this , called around to a few local attorneys that do the ladybird deed. They’re wanting over $500 to fill the paperwork out and record it for me. I will do more research and try to do it myself. I just was fearful of making a mistake on the paperwork..

Went to Pitman Law and they recommended I not do it, said the law needed some more work.

Naturally lawyers would say that……
