Legal Question in Constitutional Law in Florida

Denied access to court.....
With an intestate decedent, an estranged spouse, 1 minor child, 3 adult children (not with spouse, me +2), need to contest PR, no cash up front, minimal cash in estate how can the Florida (Pinellas) Circuit Court refuse my Constitutional right to equal access by saying that I MUST be represented by counsel when I cannot find an attorney to help me (interviewed a few and spoken to local legal aid as well as law school)?

As you describe it, you would not need a lawyer; however, you would need a lawyer to be the PR. You cannot represent the estate as a pro se litigant.
