Guiding You Through Difficult Legal Matters
Without a will, a probate court distributes your assets according to Florida law, not your wishes. Your death can be harder on your loved ones, because they may be forced to not only deal with their loss, but also with the state intervening in their grief.
At the law office of Caryn A. Van Matre, in Pensacola, Florida, our lawyer has been providing effective representation in all aspects of wills and probate administration since 1993. Our entire legal practice is centered on family matters and helping clients be proactive about protecting their rights through times of transition, whether by crafting a will, durable powers of attorney, dealing with a guardianship matter or going through a divorce.

Crafting the Will That Fulfills Your Wishes and Addresses Your Concerns
We take the time to get to know each of our clients so that we have a foundation of trust and communication. This allows us to understand your needs and goals, so that we create an individually tailored will that addresses all concerns. We strive to be sensitive in our representation of clients as they go through this emotional time.
Probate Administration and Wills
Errors that occur in the administration of an estate could have serious tax consequences, could delay the distribution of assets, and could lead to litigation. Attorney Caryn Van Matre can protect your interests in all aspects of estate and probate law:
- Conventional and living wills
- Durable and general powers of attorney
- Child guardianships for minors involved in court proceedings
- Adult guardianships for people incapacitated due to age or disability
- Probate administration
- Intestate actions
- Litigation when there is a will contest
Guardianships and Powers of Attorney
Our guardianship services include pursuing guardianships, monitoring the annual reporting deadlines and preparing the reports. Guardianship can be a difficult legal process. If you have a durable power of attorney and you become unable to care for yourself, this means your designated loved one can handle your affairs. This can avoid the cost — both emotional and financial — of going through a cumbersome legal guardianship process.
