Why Florida?

Leaving NY or Planning Retirement in Florida?

Florida offers some of the most powerful wealth protection laws in the United States — including an unlimited homestead exemption, strong asset protection trusts, and no state income tax. But taking advantage of these protections requires careful planning and proper legal structuring.

Jay Meyers is licensed in both New York and Florida, making him uniquely positioned to guide clients through the transition — whether you are relocating, retiring, or simply establishing Florida residency for asset protection purposes.

Unlimited Homestead Exemption

Florida's homestead law protects your primary residence from most creditors — with no dollar cap. Proper planning is essential to claim and preserve this protection.

Asset Protection Trusts

Florida law offers robust trust structures to shield wealth from future creditors while allowing you to retain control and benefit from your assets.

Real Estate Transactions

From new construction purchases to investment properties, we represent buyers, sellers, and investors in all aspects of South Florida real estate.

Licensed in NY & FL

Dual licensure means seamless representation whether your legal issue crosses state lines or originates entirely in Florida.
