Lisa Jo Spencer, P.A

At the law firm of Lisa Jo Spencer, P.A., our mission is to help you successfully navigate the legal transitions involved when a loved one passes away or is no longer able to manage their own affairs. We understand that these situations, often complicated by grieving, can be stressful on many levels. Our goal is to provide you with caring, competent probate support in the Florida Panhandle.

Florida Probate and Estate Planning

The weeks and months after the loss of a loved one are difficult enough. When concerns about the administration of that loved one's estate are added to the mix, the situation can become overwhelming. This is especially true in Florida, where probate laws are more complex than in much of the country. With years of experience as a Florida probate and estate planning attorney, and nearly two decades of practice in local courts, Lisa Jo Spencer has dedicated her career to making this difficult time easier for Floridians and their family members. She is familiar with the challenges common to Florida estates and helps families to navigate them, including managing the estate of a deceased person who lived in Florida, but whose executor and heirs are out of town or out of state; navigating disputes between family members of the deceased; and will contests between family members and local friends or caretakers of the deceased.

Guardianship Proceedings

In addition to supporting families during probate administration, Lisa Jo Spencer, assists clients with guardianship proceedings, including filings, and accountings. This involves helping families ensure that an elderly or incapacitated person is properly cared for and their finances managed.

Estate Planning Services

Lisa Jo Spencer also provides customized estate planning services to try to help families and individuals avoid future conflict. This includes creating wills, trusts, and other legal documents to ensure that your wishes are respected and your loved ones are protected.
