LEGACY
Estate Planning · Florida
You've worked too hard to let the state decide
where your assets go.

You've built a business. You have a brand. You have people who depend on you. And somewhere in the back of your mind, you know that none of it is legally protected for what happens next — if something happens to you.

Estate planning isn't about death. It's about power. It's about deciding right now — while you're healthy, clear-headed, and in control — exactly who gets what, who makes decisions if you can't, and how your legacy lives on without a courthouse fight.

At Stokes Law Group, we've built an estate planning experience that honors the weight of this decision — and makes it feel like the celebration it deserves to be.

Without an estate plan…

The state of Florida decides who inherits your assets — not you

Your business, your brand, and your savings could go through costly, public probate

Someone else makes medical decisions for you if you're incapacitated

The legacy you spent your life building could take years — and thousands of dollars — to untangle

"Estate planning is one of the most loving things you can do for your family. We make it an experience worth remembering."

INVESTMENT
The Math · Why This Is An Investment
This isn't a cost.
It's the cheapest part of your legacy.

An estate plan with Stokes Law Group ranges from $6,000 to $10,000 — paid once, by you, while you're alive and in control. That's it.

The alternative? Florida statute determines what your family pays in probate when there's no plan. For most homeowners, that number lands somewhere between $15,000 and $60,000 — paid by the people who loved you, after they've already lost you.

The question isn't whether you can afford to plan. It's whether your family can afford the alternative.

The SLG Difference
Cheers to the Future™
Estate planning as a celebration.

We don't make estate planning feel like a trip to the DMV. We bring the entire experience to your home — because what you're protecting is too important to be handled in a sterile conference room.

Invite two friends to serve as your witnesses. We send a state-commissioned mobile notary to your door. A charcuterie board arrives. Champagne is poured. And when you sign your documents, it feels exactly like what it is — one of the most powerful decisions you'll ever make for the people you love.

This is not just a service. It's a signature experience. And it's included with every estate planning engagement at Stokes Law Group.

I worked with Shaunette to plan out my estate plan. The experience was professional, friendly, and comforting. It's a learning opportunity where I learned and expanded my knowledge of my legal rights and obligations. She is knowledgeable and patient to explain the need for all documents I had to put in place to protect my estate and family. I am happy with the results and recommend her to anyone looking for estate planning advice.

Your Questions, Answered
What our clients ask before they
protects their legacy.
What makes the Cheers to the Future™ experience different from traditional estate planning?

Traditional estate planning happens in a sterile office — you sit across from a lawyer, sign papers, and leave. Ours happens in your home. You invite two friends as witnesses, a mobile notary comes to you, we deliver a charcuterie spread, and you sign your documents over champagne. Protecting your legacy should feel as special as the life you've built. That's the experience we've created.

How do I know which package is right for me?

Start with a $500 Strategy Session. In one hour, Attorney Stokes maps out your assets, family dynamics, and long-term goals to identify whether a will, testamentary trust, or living trust best serves your needs. You'll walk away with a clear recommendation and a detailed investment estimate. Even if you decide not to move forward, you'll have more clarity about your estate than most people ever get.

What do I need to prepare before the ceremony?

Very little. Choose two unrelated friends to serve as your official witnesses and select a date range for the ceremony. We handle everything else — attorney-led document drafting, notary coordination, charcuterie delivery, and all logistics. You just need to clear a table and embrace the moment.

How long does the entire process take?

From your initial strategy session to the signing ceremony, most clients complete the journey in 4 to 6 weeks. The in-home celebration itself lasts about 45 to 60 minutes — long enough to honor your legacy, short enough to fit your busy schedule. The timeline depends on document complexity and your responsiveness during the review process.

Do you serve clients outside of Tampa?

Yes — anywhere in Florida. We partner with vetted, state-commissioned mobile notaries statewide so the Cheers to the Future™ experience comes to you no matter where you live. Miami, Orlando, Jacksonville, Fort Lauderdale, Sarasota — we bring the celebration and the legal expertise to your door. Please note that estate planning services are available to Florida residents only.
