You can certainly go back to the attorney you worked with before, however, few attorneys offer Legacy Wealth Planning. If you want Legacy Wealth Planning, contact a member of the American Academy of Estate Planning Attorneys.

In this day and age it is very rewarding and comforting to make a major decision for the long-term security of your family. Over 14 years ago we decided upon the Kinghorn Heritage Family to create our family trust. Through the years it became very evident that this decision was a major and necessary step for a secure future in an ever-changing legal climate. The Kinghorn Family has been a close friend that has always been there to serve our family.

Once you create an estate plan, you’ll wonder what took you so long in the first place. Not only does it give you and your family peace of mind, but it also provides you a greater sense of organization.

But before you get too excited, here’s something to remember: your estate plan is likely to require some changes as you age.

Your circumstances can and will change as the years go by. When this happens, you don’t want to wait to review your estate plan. You’re likely to find that a few changes are necessary to ensure that it remains exactly how you want it.

Before we discuss specific times to review your estate plan, here’s a tip: make it a habit to review your estate plan at a certain time every year or every other year. The interval doesn’t matter nearly as much as getting into the habit of doing this.

Now, let’s talk about some of the times you should definitely review your estate plan:

Family life changes, such as marriage, divorce, having a child, or adoption
Financial changes, such as if you won the lottery or received a large inheritance
Personal changes, such as if the executor of your will has passed away

These aren’t the only times to review your estate plan, but they definitely call for you to take action.

Take for example a situation in which you get divorced, remarry, and then have a child with your new spouse. This will alter your estate plan in many ways, so you need to keep it nearby as your life evolves.

If you’re taking the time to create an estate plan, you should also take the time to keep it up to date.

Should you have any questions as you review your estate plan, contact us for guidance. We’ll make sure you make the right changes at the right time.

Estate Planning attorneys are sometimes criticized for offering needlessly complex, 'canned' solutions. This never has been the case with Kevin. The documents he created were comprehensive when appropriate and surprisingly simple when suitable. In every case, they were individually crafted to meet our unique needs.
