UPDATING YOUR WILL AS LIFE CHANGES
If COVID has taught us anything, it is that life is unpredictable and things are constantly changing. Due to the ever-changing aspects of life, you should update your estate plan as your life situation changes.
Below are a few life events that may spur a change or at least a review of your estate plan:
- Children, grandchildren, & dependents
- Have you had children or have your children had children?
- You may need to add or remove beneficiaries based on the children being born or even dying.
- You must also consider college funds and other accounts similar in nature.
- Changes in assets and ownership
- Have you acquired new properties?
- New or old businesses?
- Gifts and Donations
- Home and Health
- Changes in-laws
- have changes already occurred
- are they expected to change?
- Marital status
This is not an all-inclusive list but it will get you started on thinking about those life changes that you need to think about and redo your estate plan!
