Update An Estate Plan
Anaheim Wills and Living Trust Lawyers Update Estate Plans
Creating an estate plan is no easy task. It involves confronting your own mortality, gathering information about your assets, thinking through end-of-life issues, and making important decisions. So it’s only natural that when people complete the process, they breathe a sigh of relief and get back to living their lives.
But life is constantly changing. Your current financial and family circumstances are likely to be different from when you first wrote your will or estate plan. And, as circumstances change, estate plans must be revisited and updated.
Our Orange County estate planning attorneys revise and update clients’ estate plans
Our Anaheim wills and trusts lawyers meet with former clients and new clients to update their estate plans. By modifying our clients’ plans to accommodate changes in their lives, we help ensure that our clients’ current goals and objectives will be carried out.
If you want to learn more about drafting wills and living trusts, let us know. We will send you a complimentary pamphlet and DVD about the estate planning process. To receive a complimentary copy of our pamphlet, “The Ten Things You Must Know Before Creating (or Amending) Your Will or Trust” or a complimentary copy of our DVD, “Understanding the Revocable Living Trust: In Language that Anyone Can Understand in 8 Minutes,” let us know where to send them.

Since you last updated your estate plan, have you:
- Gotten married?
- Gotten divorced?
- Become a parent?
- Changed your mind about who you wish to inherit your assets?
- Substantially increased your assets?
- Sold off or given away a substantial portion of your assets?

- Changed your mind about medical interventions?
- Found a charity that you endorse?
- Allowed more than three years to pass?

If you answered “yes” to any of these, you should have your will and living trust documents reviewed by an estate attorney.
