This package contains both a Florida Power of Attorney for Health Care and a Florida Living Will. Together these forms are also sometimes known as an Advance Health Care Directive.

This document allows you to make some decisions about future health care issues, by allowing you to select a health care agent, give health care instructions, or both.

You can also use the advance directive to make any other health care decisions.

He proposes, she accepts, and the date for marriage is set. The couple sits down to discuss the flower arrangements, the band, and…the prenuptial agreement? The very idea makes many people hesitate: still fresh with the glow of romance, is it appropriate to think about the demise of the marriage?

Though they have been stigmatized in popular culture as cynical arrangements and romance-killers, prenuptial agreements have become more and more common in recent years. Indeed, with approximately 1/3 of all first marriages, and nearly ½ of all second and third marriages, ending in divorce, a prenuptial agreement may be seen not only as practical but as necessary. Without such agreements, the state may either grant each spouse one-half of the marital assets (if they live in a community property state ) or divide the assets based on an “equitable distribution” (if they live in a non-community property state). Any non-traditional or specific allocations that you wish to make should be covered by your prenuptial agreement to avoid the standard distributions.

A prenuptial agreement is a private agreement between two parties who are intending to marry that sets forth the distribution of assets (and debts) that will occur in the event of the parties’ divorce or death.

This packet includes:
(1) Prenuptial Agreement Information
(2) Prenuptial Agreement

Florida Residential Rental Application

Choosing a good tenant is the most important decision a landlord can make. A bad choice can result in damage, lost income and constant stress.

That well-dressed, polite person may seem perfect, but unless you check his references, you won’t find out that he has two repossessions, no job and has a penchant for playing the drums at midnight.

With a standard, thorough rental application, you can obtain information from that prospective tenant, including prior rental history, employment and credit related information. A complete form should ask the would-be tenant to consent to a credit and background check. The information you gather through this application can tell you whether your prospective tenant is likely to be considerate and responsible, or whether he will be the proverbial tenant from hell.

The Florida Residential Rental Application package contains instructions you’ll need to ensure you’re covering all the bases, including instructions, a rental application checklist, helpful information for finding tenants and the residential rental application itself.
