Probate and Estate Administration

Naples, Florida, Probate and Estate Administration Lawyer

Florida probate proceedings can be subject to delays, will contests, disputes and added costs if they are not handled properly. To ensure that your loved one's property and assets are efficiently distributed to heirs and that all possible claims against the estate are cleared, it's important to seek the advice of an experienced Florida probate and estate administration lawyer.

I’m Christopher Mast, a probate and estate administration lawyer in Naples, Florida. I compassionately assist executors, personal representatives and their families in Collier, Lee and Hendry counties in southwest Florida efficiently distribute their assets to beneficiaries after death. I also represent families from other states and their attorneys when Florida property needs to go through the probate process.

Representing out-of-state clients

Many people who are residents of other states own homes in Florida. When a nonresident dies, there may be a need for two probate proceedings: one in the state where the person was a resident and another in Florida to distribute the Florida property.

I can represent the family or heirs directly, or serve as a referral probate lawyer for a lawyer in your home state. In most cases, I can complete the probate proceeding without the need for you to travel to Florida. I will keep you informed of the status of your probate proceeding by phone and e-mail.
