LGBTQ Estate

While gay and lesbian partners choosing to marry in Florida are now afforded the same legal protections as all other married couples, LGBTQ individuals continue to face unique estate planning challenges. Despite significant legal advances, discrimination and inequality within laws still exist.

Our experienced estate planning attorneys understand the challenges gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender individuals of all marital statuses face.

We bring experience and sensitivity when assisting members of the LGBTQ community in planning for asset protection, incapacity, and end-of-life issues.

Leveraging a thorough knowledge of this complex area of law, Boyes, Farina & Matwiczyk attorneys execute estate plans for LGBTQ clients that protect their rights, as well as the wellbeing of their partners and children.

  • Designing wills and trusts to reduce estate taxes and enable seamless asset transfer.
  • Drafting a Power of Attorney to empower a personal representative to take action on behalf of an incapacitated partner.
  • Executing a comprehensive estate plan to protect minor and adult children, ensuring their guardianship is clear and that they can inherit from both parents.
  • Make medical and financial decisions
  • Arrange for burial, cremation and organ donation
  • Secure property and assets
  • Assume guardianship of children
