We come alongside clients to help plan for incapacity and death. Services we provide include: powers of attorney, healthcare surrogate designations, wills, and trusts (including revocable trusts, special needs trusts, and more)
Long-term care is a costly and confusing matter for families. We can help plan for this, whether the prospect of long-term care is years away or a loved one is already in a nursing facility.
Sometimes, a loved one can no longer manage healthcare and financial decisions, but does not have an estate plan in place- or there are problems with that plan. We represent guardians who are appointed by the Court to oversee healthcare and finances.
Our office assists families and friends of deceased persons whose assets need to be distributed. We help determine whether a probate case should be filed with the Court, and oversee the process either through probate or trust administartion.

All was done to perfection.
We had no issues to discuss. Papers were ready for us to sign, if necessary. No waiting time. Simple transaction.

Amy Phillips and Staff
Very happy with Amy and her staff professional knowledgeable and friendly. Amy is the best if you need estate planning like I did. There were a couple of things I had not even thought about but she took care of everything for me. Makes it easier for me and my children. It took 5 weeks from start to finish but well worth it. You won't be sorry give her a call.

Amy Phillips and her team were very proficient and professional in handling the probate process for my fathers estate, all during the Covid-19 pandemic in the summer of 2020. I would highly recommend them, and will look to them for any future services.

Thorough, knowledgable, kind and compassionate
We hired Amy to handle my mom's affairs. Choosing an attorney to assist you in planning for your later years is an important decision. You want someone who knows what questions to ask and someone who will cover all the bases in creating a solid estate plan. Amy Phillips is exactly that kind of attorney. Kind, compassionate and thourough are great words to describe her. When my mom was diagnosed with cancer, she had no plan in place. It was a scary time for her, but Amy guided her through the process with patience and kindness every step of the way. Thank you Amy!

Uses everyday language
It was nice to be able to gain information in everyday language which I could understand. She is current on the laws and regulations, and explains options simply with easy to follow guidelines. I gained much information from the Consultation and when I need further help, I will be using Amy Phillips again.

An A+ and 5 stars for Amy Phillips Tucker
Amy Phillips Tucker is competent and extremely knowledgeable in estate planning, Florida probate and elder law. Amy's readiness to assist with an estate plan for our parents in a timely manner was intricate in resolving any questions and concerns my parents and my sibling had regarding their lives and Medicare/Medicaid issues. I highly recommend Amy for your estate plan. She was able to affirm our position that EVERYONE needs an estate plan no matter your financial situation or family status.

Needed a will and advise.
We needed to do a will. She performed that task perfectly. My father had died and we needed some advice. She recommended a financial advisor who has also been helpful. We have known Amy for many years and recommend her.

Honest, Trustworthy Attorney
Amy went out of her way to help our family when my mother-in-law was sick. She was very knowledgeable about the steps we needed to take, and put our minds at ease during the difficult time in dealing with an aging parent. Amy is kind, honest, and trustworthy.

Guardianship
I have worked with Ms. Tucker on several Guardianship cases. She is very knowledgeable of Guardianship law. She was very helpful, knows the process needed with the court. She is very thoughtful in her handling of cases and gives the attention needed with the sensitivity Guardianship cases require. I would highly recommend Ms. Tucker and plan to continue to use her as my needs arise.
