How Often Should I Update My Will?

Full Video Transcript

You’ve already created a will to protect your loved ones. But just as life changes, so should your will. When should you consider updating it? Major life events are key triggers. Whether you’re getting married, welcoming a new child, or going through a divorce, each of these events should prompt a review of your will. Other important reasons include significant changes in your financial situation, like receiving a large inheritance, or changes in the law that might affect your estate. It’s also wise to revisit your will if there’s been a change in your relationships, such as a new grandchild, or, sadly, the death of a loved one included in your will. Remember, keeping your will updated ensures that your wishes are clear and can be carried out as you intended. Take action today to ensure peace of mind for tomorrow. Your future self, and your loved ones, will thank you. Visit LawInfo.com to learn more about your legal options and ensure your will is always current.
