Read below more on how in Florida an estate is divided when the deceased's will is in question:
Share of other heirs
The part of the intestate estate not passing to the surviving spouse under s. 732.102, or the entire intestate estate if there is no surviving spouse, descends as follows:
To the lineal descendants of the decedent.
If there is no lineal descendant, to the decedent's father and mother equally, or to the survivor of them.
If there is none of the foregoing, to the decedent's brothers and sisters and the descendants of deceased brothers and sisters.
If there is none of the foregoing, the estate shall be divided, one-half of which shall go to the decedent's paternal, and the other half to the decedent's maternal, kindred in the following order:
To the grandfather and grandmother equally, or to the survivor of them.
If there is no grandfather or grandmother, to uncles and aunts and descendants of deceased uncles and aunts of the decedent.
If there is either no paternal kindred or no maternal kindred, the estate shall go to the other kindred who survive, in the order stated above.
If there is no kindred of either part, the whole of the property shall go to the kindred of the last deceased spouse of the decedent as if the deceased spouse had survived the decedent and then died intestate entitled to the estate.
