Estate Planning and Administration from the Simple to Complex
Trust Nici Law Firm, P.L. with all your estate planning and estate administration needs. We can help you with any of the following:
Estate Planning – We review your assets and objectives to create the right combination of Wills, Trusts, Advance Directives, and Powers of Attorney that ensure you are properly cared for and protected during your lifetime, and your estate is handled in accordance with your wishes after you are gone. Our estate planning expert takes special care to craft a Creditor-Protected Inheritance and avoid the Estate and Gift Tax while addressing issues such as Special Needs Planning, IRA planning, Charitable Trusts, Blended Family Estate Planning, or other needs specific to your unique situation.
Estate Administration – We advise and represent Personal Representatives, Trustees and others through the myriad of complex tasks involved in Probate or Trust Administration. Fiduciaries risk exposure to personal liability if they don’t fulfill their roles properly. Our goal is to assist representatives for their benefit and so that heirs and beneficiaries receive their inheritance sooner and with minimum expense to the estate.
Florida Domicile – Making Florida your primary residence is as simple as moving here; making Florida your domicile is a little more involved. We’ll guide you through the steps of declaring Florida domicile so you can reap the benefits Florida has to offer regarding homestead exemption, tax shelters, no state income tax, asset protection, and more.
Business Planning – Our firm offers a wide range of services for start-ups, small businesses and corporations. We can advise and assist in the right structure for business entity formation and guide you through business succession planning, including closely-held family businesses. Our services range from buying or selling an enterprise to forming offshore entities and more.

We take a lot of stress and worry off your plate so you can focus on running and growing your business.
Asset Protection – Nici Law Firm, P.L., provides highly specialized legal services devoted to asset protection in the context of estate planning. We help potential “deep pocket” defendants avoid unwanted attention by maintaining privacy in their business dealings.
