Firm Summary

Stephen P. Heuston was born and raised in Eastern Washington and received his undergraduate degree from the University of Washington in Seattle. After graduation, Stephen moved to Washington, DC, and worked for the US Senate in various staff positions and then for the US House of Representatives where he was responsible for keeping the Member informed, including the time during the complete re-writing of the 1986 Internal Revenue Code. Stephen then attended George Washington University Law School in the District of Columbia and, after graduation, went to work for the Washington, DC office of a prominent Baltimore, Maryland law firm. There he practiced in the areas of estate and trust tax planning, estate planning, probate, and trusts. Stephen met his wife Denise in Washington, DC, who being a native of Vero Beach, Florida, persuaded him to move to Florida, where they raised their two children.

Stephen limits his practice to the areas of the law which relate to wills, trusts, probate, and estate and trust tax matters. He has a niche practice of representing charitable and non-profit organizations concerning their estate and trust matters throughout the State of Florida and nationwide. Charities oftentimes find themselves involved in complex estate and trust matters and need an advocate and advisor to guide them through the process. They need an advocate when a disgruntled heir is challenging their beneficiary interest. Charitable organizations also need an advisor when they are unsure how to respond to issues in an estate or trust of which the charity is named as a beneficiary. Stephen considers his firm to be a Champion for Charities.
