Did You Know

That, In Florida…

By Adam S. Gumson, Esq.

Child support is not “a
wash” if the parents’ time-
share arrangement is on a
50/50 basis unless the parents’
respective incomes are equal.
Otherwise, determining child
support involves using a
formula to calculate the greater
wage earner’s obligation based
on pro rata percentages. In
addition to child support, the
parents are often obligated to
contribute to health insurance and/or additional childcare or
daycare costs.
A registered agent is appointed by a corporation, foreign or
within the State of Florida, to accept service of process, notices
or demands received.
Original wills must be deposited with the Clerk of Court
within 10 days after the person holding the will is informed of
the death of the signatory. The Clerk of the Court will hold the
original will in original form for a minimum of 20 years.
While the grantor of a revocable trust is of capacity
and living, the grantor retains all duties and privileges of
the trustee. Upon the death of the grantor, a revocable trust
becomes irrevocable. The successor trustee assumes the duties
of the trustee, but not all rights the grantor held will pass to the
successor trustee.
