Clearwater Estate Planning Blog & Probate Insights

Welcome to the Castagna Law Firm, P.A. Clearwater estate planning blog—your place for plain-English guidance on wills, trusts, probate timelines, and real-world planning questions Pinellas County families ask every day. From Island Estates and Sand Key to Countryside and Dunedin, we share practical tips for organizing documents, aligning beneficiary designations, and reducing stress for loved ones when life changes.



You’ll find articles on choosing between a will and a revocable living trust, how Florida homestead and titling affect your plan, what personal representatives can expect in Pinellas probate, and how to prepare for digital asset and cryptocurrency access. We also cover blended family estate planning, business continuity through trusts, and periodic plan reviews—because the best plans evolve as your family grows, moves, and retires along the Tampa Bay coast.

Browse posts geared to young families naming guardians, retirees updating out-of-state documents for Florida law, and second-marriage households balancing gifts for children and stepchildren.
