Estate Planning for Jensen Beach Families

Jensen Beach is a community of established families, waterfront property owners, retirees, and business owners — the exact population most likely to benefit from a comprehensive estate plan and least likely to have one in place. Florida's probate process applies to anyone who dies owning assets titled in their name alone without a beneficiary designation. A properly funded trust avoids that process entirely. A will, powers of attorney, and advance directives handle everything else.


For Jensen Beach residents with property on or near the water, with family in multiple states, or with assets accumulated over decades in the community, the absence of a plan is not a small gap. It is the difference between your family receiving what you intended and a Florida court deciding how it is distributed.


Evett L. Simmons handles estate planning for Jensen Beach clients from our Port St. Lucie office. Her practice covers the full set of estate planning documents — wills and trusts, powers of attorney, and advance directives — and extends to guardianship and conservatorship matters for clients navigating incapacity alongside estate planning needs.
