Many people create an estate plan once and file it away. A quick review every few years helps ensure it still reflects your life today.

Here are five documents worth pulling out this month:

• Your will
• Powers of attorney
• Medical directive
• Trust documents, if you have them
• Beneficiary designations on retirement and life insurance accounts

Marriage, divorce, children, new jobs, and new homes are all good reasons to revisit your plan. A little time today can make life much easier for your loved ones later.

Here's a challenge for this week: Set aside 20 minutes for a family planning conversation.

Topics could include:
• Emergency contacts
• Healthcare wishes
• Guardians for minor children
• Financial accounts
• Important passwords and document locations

A short discussion today can save confusion and stress later.

If something happened to you tomorrow, could your family easily answer these questions?

• Where are your important documents?
• Who would make medical decisions on your behalf?
• Who would manage your finances?
• Who would care for your minor children?
• Have your beneficiary designations been reviewed recently?

Many people intend to address these issues "someday." A simple review can provide clarity and direction for the people you care about most.

When a loved one can no longer manage personal, medical, or financial decisions independently, families are often faced with difficult choices.

How did you do?
