Estate Plan Updates: Our Process and Free Estate Plan Record Saves You Money

We work with you to draft documents to prepare a comprehensive and flexible estate plan that is designed to protect your assets, ensure that your assets are distributed according to your wishes with the smallest expense, and provide for your family. Our planning process starts by gathering information necessary to help you understand whether you need a basic, intermediate or complex estate plan.

Advantageously, the first step in preparing your plan begins with completing our free Estate Plan Record. This record reflects all the relevant information that we would need in order to draft your estate plan and to a great extent all of the information needed to administrate your estate. Once this comprehensive record is completed, it is easily reviewed and updated saving you and your heirs and beneficiaries valuable time and money.

Completed plans should be reviewed at regular intervals, upon special lifetime events, and when changes occur in the applicable laws. We offer custom annual reviews that begin with an update of your Estate Plan Record. We use your updated Record to create an updated model of your estate plan and make the appropriate recommendations. In the event that your record does not need to be updated for lifetime events, changes in the applicable laws are the only issue that needs to be addressed in an update of your plan. This saves you time and money in the update process, and ensures that your estate plan reflects changing conditions in your life as well as the continued support and care of your loved ones.
