Christian Smith

Estate Planning attorney Christian Smith helps families throughout the state of Florida. Christian was born in Jacksonville, Florida, and was raised as a military brat while his mom was stationed at the Naval Air Station in Jacksonville. Christian graduated with high honors with a Bachelor’s in English Literature from the University of North Florida in Jacksonville. Upon graduation, Christian moved to Ohio to take care of his aging grandpa and to attend law school. While attending law school at the University of Dayton in Ohio, Christian endured a very difficult probate process when his grandpa passed. The probate process took over a year to complete and cost tens of thousands of dollars. In addition to the expense and the delay, Christian saw firsthand how the death of his father figure drastically impacted the family dynamic. Christian felt a calling to help families avoid the immense emotional and financial burden that inevitably follows if one does not have their estate plan in order. Christian resides in St. Petersburg near the Weedon Island Preserve where he frequently enjoys running and kayaking with his wife. He also enjoys playing tennis and ice hockey when he is not serving families and helping them accomplish their estate planning goals.
