Rights & Interests


Fort Lauderdale Probate and Estate Planning Lawyer
You’ve Built a Life, a Family, and a Business. But Is It Protected?
Whether you are scaling a company or raising a family, the legal system can feel like an obstacle course. One overlooked contract or a missing signature on a Will can put everything you’ve worked for at risk.
You want to protect your legacy, but you don’t want to get bogged down in confusing jargon or expensive hourly billing. You need a partner who sees the big picture, someone who can spot the risks before they become liabilities.
We Don’t Just Fix Legal Problems. We Prevent Them.
At The Kogan Firm, P.A., we believe that the best legal strategy is a proactive one.
Founded by Paul Kogan, a Business and Estate Planning attorney with a background in Risk Management, our firm operates differently than traditional practices. We don’t view your business and your personal life as separate silos. We understand that your company is your engine, and your family is your fuel.
Because Paul also handles Litigation in the courtroom, he has seen firsthand what happens when estate plans fail or business partnerships sour. We use that courtroom experience to draft stronger, more durable plans for you today, so you or your family doesn’t have to fight tomorrow.
A Comprehensive Strategy for Every Stage of Life
We provide clear, strategic counsel across the full lifecycle of wealth and legacy.
For Your Business (Risk Management & Growth): A business is more than just a product; it’s a legal entity that needs armor. We move beyond simple formation. We draft Operating/Shareholder Agreements that prevent partner disputes, review Vendor Contracts to ensure you get paid, and act as Outside General Counsel to help you navigate growth without the overhead of an in-house legal department.
For Your Family (Estate Planning): If you own a home or have minor children, the State of Florida has a plan for you but it likely isn’t the one you want. We help you take control through the use of Wills and Trusts. By properly funding a Trust, we can often help your family avoid the 6–12-month delay of Probate court entirely, ensuring your assets pass privately and immediately to the people you love.
For Your Peace of Mind (Probate & Administration): When a loved one passes, the legal burden of Probate can be overwhelming. We guide loved ones through the Florida court system to pay debts, distribute assets, and close the estate efficiently. If disputes arise, whether it’s a Will contest or a creditor claim, we are prepared to advocate for your interests in litigation.
Modern Law for Modern Lives
We know that walking into a law office can be intimidating. That is why we have stripped away the friction.

Stop Worrying About “What If.” Start Planning for “What Is.”
You don’t have to navigate the legal system alone. Let us help you build a fortress around your business and your family.
