Florida has one of the largest senior populations in the country - and unfortunately, one of the highest rates of elder financial exploitation.

Today, on World Elder Abuse Awareness Day, it's worth considering whether the people you love have the legal protections they need. If a loved one doesn't have a current plan in place, this is the time to put one in place. Contact Dishowitz Law: (954) 762-3442

This is one of the most costly assumptions Florida homeowners make. Unfortunately, most people don't find out until after a storm has hit.

Standard homeowner's policies and flood coverage are entirely separate. That gap can leave families facing significant out-of-pocket losses with no clear legal path forward.

A few intentional steps now can make an already difficult situation significantly more manageable.

June is National Homeownership Month - and if you own a home in Florida, your legal protections go further than most people realize.

Florida's homestead exemption shields your primary residence from most creditors, with no cap on the home's value. But those same protections come with restrictions on who can inherit the property β€” rules that are often overlooked in estate plans drafted in other states.

If you moved to Florida and haven't updated your plan since, this is worth a closer look. πŸ“ž Let's make sure your estate plan accounts for it β€” (954) 762-3442

Florida just made it easier for families to settle modest estates without going through full probate court.

Starting July 1, HB 1337 doubles the summary administration threshold to $150,000 - meaning more families qualify for a faster, less expensive process.

If you've been putting off reviewing your estate plan, now is a great time. An outdated plan may not reflect these new thresholds. Drop your questions in the comments or reach out for a consultation.

Memorial Day weekend is one of the most dangerous travel periods of the year in Florida and across the country. Increased traffic, impaired driving, and late-night travel all contribute to a spike in fatal crashes.

As travel increases this weekend, it’s a reminder to stay alert, avoid distractions, and be mindful of your surroundings on the road. A few extra seconds of caution can make a real difference.

One collapsed wheel in 1916 reshaped American law forever. MacPherson v. Buick established that manufacturers can be held liable for negligence even without a direct relationship with the person harmed - a principle that still drives personal injury cases today.
