If Any of These Things Happen, Change Your Estate Plan Immediately
You are to be commended if you already have an estate plan in place. It shows that you care about your beneficiaries and you want things to go as smoothly as possible for them once you are no longer here or even if you become incapacitated for a time.
However, things come up in life that require changes to an existing estate plan. If you come across any of these life experiences, it is time to change your estate plan as soon as possible.
- Marriage – Whether you have a previous marriage or not, you want to be sure that there is nothing in your estate plan that would keep your new mate from inheriting his or her fair share of your assets.
- Birth or Adoption – This would include your children or any grandchildren. Don’t forget that if you divided everything evenly between several kids and grandkids that you will have to add in the latest child or grandchild so no one gets left out.
- Divorce – It is unlikely you want a former mate to receive anything, or at least not the same share he or she would have received while you were married. Don’t forget to change the name of your beneficiary on your retirement funds or life insurance policies.
- Death of an Heir – There are times when sadly we outlive our successors. It is especially important to select a new executor or successor trustee quickly should one of them pass away.
- You Move Out of State – Different states and countries have varying laws. So if you have moved to a new state or country, you need to review your estate plan. If you have moved to California, give Petrov Law Firm a call.
