Asked on Jun 25th, 2013 on Wills and Probate - Florida
More details to this question:
Should the will be through a lawyer or a notary public? Is it better to have a US will or if we have a canadian will that specifies the US house, is acceptable?

You should consider putting the property in the name of a trust agreement. If you put the property into a trust, it will pass outside of probate. My contact information is below if you would like further assistance. I'm sure we can help.
