Parents in Sarasota, Charlotte, DeSoto, Glades, Hendry, Lee, Collier, Palm Beach, Broward, Miami-Dade & Monroe: Don’t Wait to Protect Your Kids
Between daycare drop-offs, swim lessons, and late-night laundry, it’s tempting to put planning on hold. But for millennial (millenial) and Gen Z parents, the most important decision isn’t about investments—it’s who raises your children and who can act for your family if you can’t.
Biazzo Law helps young families across Sarasota, Charlotte, DeSoto, Glades, Hendry, Lee, Collier, Palm Beach, Broward, Miami-Dade, and Monroe Counties put a complete plan in place—fully remotely. Our process is fast, modern, and convenient for busy schedules (mobile intake, plain-English drafts, guided e-signing/notarization).
Guardianship for Minor Children (Florida): The Heart of Your Plan
What it is: A guardianship clause (typically in your will and coordinated with your trust) names who will care for your children if you’re incapacitated or pass away.
Why it matters for Southwest & South Florida families:
You—not the court—choose the caregiver who shares your values and routines.
Name backups and separate roles: a guardian for day-to-day care and a trustee to manage money.
Reduce conflict and delays with clear, legally enforceable instructions.
Why a Revocable Living Trust Makes Sense (Even If You’re Not “Wealthy”)
A revocable living trust (Florida) helps your family avoid headaches and keep control:
Avoids probate—often faster, more private, and less expensive.
Built-in incapacity plan—a successor trustee can step in without court guardianship.
Kid-first controls—direct funds for health, education, activities, and milestones (instead of a lump sum at 18).
Easy to update as life changes (new baby, move, new job).
Don’t Skip These Florida Essentials
Durable Power of Attorney (Florida POA):Authorizes a trusted person to handle money and legal matters if you’re incapacitated—pay rent/mortgage, manage childcare costs, file taxes, deal with insurance and loans—without a court process.
Designation of Health Care Surrogate (Florida):Names who can make medical decisions if you can’t. Pair with HIPAA authorizations for records access and a Living Will to clarify end-of-life preferences.
Bottom line: These documents prevent delays and court detours, keeping life moving for your family.
“We’ll Wait Until We Have More Assets.” Please Don’t.
Young parents across Sarasota–Bradenton, Punta Gorda–Port Charlotte, Arcadia, Moore Haven, LaBelle & Clewiston, Fort Myers–Cape Coral–Estero, Naples–Marco Island, West Palm Beach–Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood, Miami–Miami Beach, and the Florida Keys often underestimate what’s at stake:
Guardianship can’t wait.
Life insurance and retirement accounts can pour into your trust for guided, age-appropriate use.
Digital life & benefits (HSA, brokerage apps, crypto, social accounts) need aligned beneficiaries and access instructions.
Capture routines, values, schooling preferences, and special needs so transitions are easier for your kids.
Estate planning isn’t about net worth—it’s about instructions and protection.
