How long does a benificiary of a trust have to contest it in Florida?

The length of time that a beneficiary may file a challenge for a trust depends on the nature of the challenge, i.e., whether the challenge is to the accounting, or whether it is to an issue relating to the validity, enforceability, or interpretation of the trust document. Florida Statutes, Section 736.1008, provides the limitations periods for proceedings by a beneficiary against the trustee of the trust.  For issues related to accountings, Section 736.1008(2) provides that "a beneficiary is barred from bringing an action against a trustee for breach of trust with respect to a matter that was adequately disclosed in a trust disclosure document unless a proceeding to assert the claim is commenced within 6 months after receipt from the trustee of the trust disclosure document or a limitation notice that applies to that disclosure document. If there is a challenge to a trustee's actions and the trustee has not issued a final accounting for the trust, or provided the trust beneficiaries with access to the trust records for examination, and the claim is based on a matter that was not adequately disclosed by the Trustee, then the limitations periods provided by Florida Statutes, Chapter 95 will control the period of time within which the claim must be brought.  Generally speaking, those limitations periods will be either 4 years or 5 years from the occurrence of the claim, depending on the nature of the claim.
