Sawyer & Sawyer, P.A. helps Winter Garden families plan for the future and handle the legal side of life’s hardest moments, from writing a first will to settling a parent’s estate. We’re a family-owned firm that has served Central Florida since 1994.
Planning for Winter Garden Families
Winter Garden, a city in western Orange County with a historic downtown, is home to about 48,000 people. About 2 in 3 households here own the home they live in.
If you have children under 18, you can use your estate plan to name the guardian you’d want to care for them. A will also says who receives your property and who will manage your estate. Without a will, Florida law decides who inherits, and your own wishes, including your choice of guardian, aren’t considered.
We help Winter Garden families with wills and guardian designations, and with the steps that come later, from settling an estate to paying for long-term care. Start with any of the six topics below.
