divorce, Collaborative Family Law & mediation services

At Forst Law Firm, we are committed to helping you find the information you need to make the decisions that will bring you to a life you choose. After over twenty years as a family lawyer, Kelly Forst has committed her Florida family law practice to Collaborative and mediated matters. These processes foster respect, fair and honest communication, trust, and a holistic approach in moving from married to single life. Both Danielle and Kelly offer litigation and collaborative services in New York.
Kelly is a member of the collaborative organizations in Orlando, Florida CFL-CFL and Rochester, New York (CLARA), and the Florida (FACP) and International (IACP) Academies of Collaborative Professionals. She was a Fellow at the 2019-2020 FACP Leadership Institute, and has served on the CLARA Board of Directors. 
"Kelly was knowledgeable in the Collaborative process, and helped me feel comfortable
and at ease, during this stressful time." ​- Colleen R.

Estate planning, guardianship, and probate

Each state has its own unique set of laws and rules for the passing of property to others by will, deed, trust, or intestacy.  Whether you have just lost a loved one, or are making decisions about your own estate plan, our years of experience and compassionate counsel can help you through the process with confidence.  If you are relocating to Florida, or if you are a "snowbird" from New York or Virginia, we can help make sure your estate plan works with your life, and for your family.
