Making changes and updates to your estate plan is extremely important. Sometimes, life gets hectic and people forget to notate the things that change. While it’s almost impossible to go through life without any change, it’s also something that many fail to document at times. Estate planning in Raleigh NC is ongoing. It is important to reflect changes in your plan that come about in your life.
Making an effort to update your estate plan at least once every two years is beneficial. That way, you can ensure that all changes are made, no matter what has happened in your life. Working with our estate lawyer, you’ll be able to document a marriage, divorce, newborn children, changes in property titles, retirement information, and much more.
In our previous blog post, we talked about a few of these changes that may need to be notated when estate planning in Raleigh NC. Today we continue this discussion.
Sometimes, life changes seem small or unimportant. However, things like purchasing a new boat or selling a vehicle should be reflected in your estate plan. It’s also important to consider the buying and selling of real estate, business dealings, and anything else that has been purchased or sold that has value.
It can be difficult to keep up with these changes. However, updating your estate plan to reflect these things will be beneficial in the event that you pass in an untimely manner. You will not have to worry about leaving your loved ones with an outdated estate plan that could lead them to probate court. This can be an overwhelming, time-consuming situation that may also be costly. Working closely with our estate lawyer can ensure that your estate plan is valid and ready to be used.
