Selis Elder Law of Florida

Your Will might not control what you think it does.

Old TOD/POD or beneficiary designation on an account? That overrides your Will — even a brand new one.

Example: You name a friend as TOD beneficiary years ago, then write a will leaving "everything" to your kids. The account still goes to the friend. The will can't touch it.

✅ Review your beneficiary designations every time you update your estate plan.

What a great organization and turnout at St. Pal's luncheon. Attendees of this luncheon serve seniors in a variety of ways.

Some are care providers, others are senior service providers such as care managers, nursing homes, assisted living communities, home health care agencies, and Homecare companies. It’s through collaboration that we professionals get the best results.

The JumpStart event this morning, hosted by Todd Brown and Brookdale Ormond Beach, was well-attended. Brian Schooley's presentation on Medicare changes was particularly insightful. Thanks to Todd, Brian, and Brookdale for their efforts in organizing the event.
