Can a will and trust made up i Florida be probated in NY

Terry Lynn Garrett
Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
Most states will admit a Will written in another state to probate if the Will was valid in the other state when it was signed. Administration of a trust is governed by the law of the state where it is administered.  Other concerns (investment, distribution, etc.) are governed by the law stated in the document.  If you create a Floirda trust and later return to New York, only the law governing administration will change.  The Florida law provisions governing the trust itself will still be enforceable.

Is a son entitled to see his father's will even if the son is not a beneficiary?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Robert James Slotkin (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Robert J. Slotkin
Until the father is dead, the answer is NO. But after he dies, whoever is holding the will is required to send the will to the clerk of the court in the County where he resided. At that point, it is a public record and you can see it by visiting the clerks' office during business hours.
