Estate Planning Shouldn’t Feel This Complicated…

  • You worry your family won’t know what to do if something happens to you.

  • You’ve put off creating a will or trust because it feels overwhelming or confusing.

  • You want clear instructions in place so you wishes are honored without confusion or conflict.

  • You want to avoid expensive court processes, family conflict, and unnecessary stress later.

  • You’re concerned about long-term care, nursing home costs, or Medicaid eligibility.

  • You’re unsure who would care for your children—or how they’d be financially protected.

Probate & Trust Admin Can Feel Overwhelming…

  • You’ve just lost someone — and now you’re responsible for handling their estate..

  • You’ve been named Executor, Personal Representative or Trustee and aren’t sure what you’re legally required to do.

  • You’re worried about missing deadlines, filing the wrong documents, or being personally liable.

  • You’re getting pressure from beneficiaries who want answers — and you don’t have them yet.

  • You want the estate settled efficiently, correctly, and with as little conflict as possible.

  • You need clear guidance on what happens next — and someone to walk you through it step by step.

About
The Will Lawyer, P.A.

The Will Lawyer, P.A. was founded in 2014 by William ("Bill") G. Kilpatrick, Jr., a Destin-native attorney with a deep commitment to helping families gain peace of mind. Bill’s vision was to build a law firm solely focused on serving individuals and families in the areas of wills, trusts, probate, and elder-law—and to do so in a way that is accessible, straightforward, and centered on the people we serve.
