Estate Planning Attorney in Palm Harbor, Florida
Comprehensive Estate Planning for Our Neighbors in Palm Harbor
At Silvers Law, P.A., we understand that thinking about the future isn’t always easy. Most people don’t wake up and say, “Today’s the day I create my estate plan.” It usually starts with a moment. Maybe someone close to you passed unexpectedly. Maybe you’ve just welcomed a child or grandchild and want to be sure they’re protected. Maybe you’re watching a loved one struggle with aging or illness and realizing how important it is to have things in order.
Whatever brought you here, we want you to know—you’re doing the right thing. Estate planning is about more than documents. It’s about making sure the people you love are taken care of, and that your voice is heard no matter what life brings.
We help individuals and families throughout Palm Harbor create thoughtful, personalized estate plans that reflect their values and protect their legacies.

Why Estate Planning Is So Important
You don’t need to be wealthy to need an estate plan. If you own a home, have a savings account, run a business, or have children, you have an estate. And that means you have something worth protecting.
Many of the families we help come to us after life has changed in some way. A parent was diagnosed with dementia. A couple had their first child. Someone inherited property and didn’t know what to do next. Others come because they’ve seen how painful it is when a loved one passes without a plan in place.
If you’ve ever thought to yourself, “I know I need to do this, but I don’t know where to start,” you’re not alone. We’re here to walk you through it, answer your questions, and help you make decisions that feel right for you and your family.
What We Help You With
Estate planning is more than just a will. It’s a group of tools and documents that work together to give you peace of mind and control over what happens to your assets, your health care, and your legacy.
Here’s what we commonly help with at Silvers Law, P.A.:
Wills
A will lets you decide who inherits your assets and who will care for your children if something happens to you. It also names the person you want to manage your estate. Without a valid Florida will, the court makes those decisions, which may not match your wishes.
Trusts
Trusts can help your loved ones avoid probate, reduce stress, and receive their inheritance faster and privately. We help you determine if a revocable living trust, irrevocable trust, or special needs trust makes sense for your situation.
Advance Directives and Health Care Surrogates
If you become seriously ill or incapacitated, who do you want to make medical decisions for you? How far should doctors go with life-sustaining care? These are hard questions, but answering them in advance protects your family from having to guess. We’ll help you document your preferences and choose a health care surrogate you trust.
Powers of Attorney
We help you legally appoint someone to handle financial or legal matters on your behalf if you’re unable to. This can be temporary or long-term, and it’s one of the most important protections you can put in place.
Updating an Existing Estate Plan
If you moved to Florida, got married or divorced, had a new child or grandchild, or inherited something substantial, it’s time to update your plan. We review existing documents and help you adjust them so they still meet your needs.
How We've Helped People Like You in Palm Harbor
We’ve worked with couples in their thirties setting up wills for the first time after becoming parents. We’ve helped retirees who recently moved to Palm Harbor from out of state update their entire plan to meet Florida’s legal requirements. We’ve sat with adult children who just took over caregiving duties for an elderly parent and needed help putting protections in place fast.
One client came to us after her husband suffered a stroke. They had no documents in place, and she was struggling to manage their shared finances. We helped her establish power of attorney, create a plan for long-term care, and draft a will that made her feel confident everything was finally in order.
You don’t have to go through this alone. Whether your estate is simple or complex, whether you’re planning ahead or responding to a crisis, we’re here to guide you.
What It’s Like to Work with Silvers Law, P.A.
When you contact us, we won’t hand you a form packet and send you on your way. We’ll have a real conversation about what’s going on in your life. We’ll ask about your family, your goals, and what you want to make sure never gets overlooked.

Once we understand your needs, we’ll draft a plan customized to you, not a generic template. Then we’ll help you sign and finalize everything correctly under Florida law. And after it’s done, we’re here whenever you need us. Life changes. So can your estate plan. We’re just a phone call away.
