| Summary of Services |
Florida law gives the court discretion over bonding a personal representative in Clay County. A will may waive the requirement, but the court can still order a bond sized to the personal property and anticipated income. |
| Court History |
Florida uses the Circuit Court for probate rather than a separate court. The court serving Clay County hears estate administration and guardianship cases. In Green Cove Springs, Clay County Clerk of Court and Comptroller serves Clay County for estate and probate administration. Case information for Clay County is generally confirmed directly with the court rather than through an online docket search. |
| Additional Information |
Some Clay County estates cannot close until missing or unknown heirs are located and notified. If that applies to your case, we can refer you to licensed investigators across the country who specialize in heir searches. When you are ready for the bond itself, we issue executor, administrator, guardianship, and conservator bonds for Florida, often the same day. Apply online to begin. |
