Elective Share

Florida has laws that protect surviving spouses by allowing them to claim an “elective share” of the deceased spouse’s estate. Regardless of whether the deceased spouse will leave them less or nothing. This share is usually 30% of the decedent’s estate. However, a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement can waive this share.
