When was the last time you reviewed your estate plan? If your answer is “it has been a while,” you are not alone. Many people assume their estate plan is complete once it is signed, but in reality, it should be revisited over time to ensure it continues to reflect your wishes.

Here are a few key things to keep in mind:

🔹Regular Reviews Matter - It is often recommended that you review your estate plan every three to five years to keep it aligned with your current circumstances.

🔹Life Change Updates - Events like marriage, divorce, or welcoming a child should prompt a timely review, ideally within 60 to 90 days after the event.

🔹Know the Common Triggers - The “5 Ds” (death, disability, divorce, distance, and descendants) are considered the most common triggers for a review.

An estate plan should grow and change with you. If it has been a few years since your last review, our team is here to help. Contact us today to get started.

Americans are living longer, and that shift is reshaping how we think about estate planning. Recent data shows life expectancy in the U.S. has climbed to nearly 79 years, continuing an upward trend after recent declines during the COVID-19 pandemic.

This means individuals and families must prepare for longer retirements, extended care needs, and more complex planning decisions over time. Swipe through to learn more.

If your current plan does not reflect these realities, or if it has been some time since your last review, now is the time to revisit it. Contact us today to discuss how we can help you plan for the future with confidence.

As we reach the midpoint of the year, it is a good time to pause and ask: Does your estate plan still reflect your current wishes and circumstances?

Here are a few important questions to consider:

🔹 Have you experienced a major life change? Marriage, divorce, remarriage, the birth or adoption of a child or grandchild, a death in the family, purchasing a new home, starting a new business, or retirement can all impact how your plan operates.

🔹 Do your decision-makers not align with your wishes anymore? Your executor, trustee, and powers of attorney should be individuals who are still willing and able to serve when needed.

🔹 Could your assets and beneficiary designations use a quick review? Retirement accounts, life insurance policies, and property titles should align with your will or trust to avoid unintended outcomes.

🔹 Has it simply been a while since you checked in on your plan? Even without major life changes, estate plans should still be reviewed periodically to remain current with evolving laws and aligned with your long-term goals.

If the answer to any of these questions is “yes”, then do not hesitate to contact us to schedule a review of your estate plan. We are here to help you keep everything aligned and up to date.
