In the United States, having been married more than one time is not at all uncommon. When planning a second marriage, however, many Florida residents never consider the ramifications that it could have on their estate planning.

When it comes to end-of-life and estate planning, there are many aspects to consider. The need for a health care directive, for example, is often a question in the minds of those who are consulting with their attorney on such matters.

Most people who have a trust are made aware that it needs to be funded in order for it to work as it should. In fact, most estate planning attorneys stress the importance of funding the trust several times throughout the process of setting it up.

Many people have a general idea in their minds about how they want to be treated as the end of their life approaches. Unfortunately, most of those people just take for granted that their loved ones will ensure that those desires are met.

No one wants to leave their children to the care of the state of Florida. With budget cuts and constantly changing laws, there would simply be no way to ensure that the child would receive the care that the parent would give.
