As previously discussed, an estate plan is more than just a Will. Over the last few weeks we have taken you through Steps 1 – 4 of our estate planning ‘to-do’ list which involved:
- Gathering Information;
- Seeking Advice;
- Making Decisions and Drafting Documents; and
- Conversations and Further Planning.
There is one final step to our to-do list which is just as important as steps 1 to 4.
Final step – Review
We always recommend to our clients that they review their Will and other documents at least every 2-3 years. This means just reading through the documents carefully to make sure that there are no changes to be made and that it all still reflects your wishes. Other times when you may wish to review your documents are when ‘life events’ occur such as the death of a loved one, the birth of a child, purchasing new property, etc.
