Life Has Changed

Has Your Will Changed With It?

Inside this free checklist, you’ll be able to:

g Identify life changes that may affect your estate plan

g Review your beneficiaries and backup beneficiaries

g Reconsider your executor, trustee, guardian, and other decision-makers

g Organize information about property, financial accounts, insurance, retirement plans, debts, and digital assets

g Check beneficiary designations and account ownership

g Locate your Will, trust, powers of attorney, health-care documents, and related records

g Evaluate how securely your documents are stored

g Prepare meaningful questions for qualified professional guidance

g Create a practical list of your next steps

Your Will may have reflected your wishes when it was originally prepared—but marriage, divorce, children, grandchildren, property purchases, business changes, financial growth, relocation, and changing relationships can make parts of it outdated.

If something happened to you today, would your family find clear, current instructions?

Or would they discover a Will that names the wrong decision-maker, leaves out important loved ones, or refers to property you no longer own?

You do not need to wait for a crisis to find out.

You Don’t Have to Figure Everything Out Alone

This checklist is designed to help you slow down, organize the facts, and prepare for a more productive conversation with qualified legal, financial, tax, and insurance professionals.

Because life-changing events do not always send a warning first, one of the smartest things you can do is build a planning system before a crisis occurs—one that gives you access to guidance, clearer next steps, and greater confidence in the decisions you make.

An Outdated Will May Create More Questions Than Answers

A Will does not automatically update when your life changes.

The document your family finds could still name someone you no longer trust, omit family members who came into your life later, or include instructions that no longer reflect your property, relationships, responsibilities, or wishes.

Reviewing your plan now may help you identify concerns while you still have the opportunity to address them.
