Q: When should I consider updating my will?

A: People commonly update their wills related to important life occasions, like having a child or losing a loved one. But there are other subtle transitions that have implications for your estate plans.

  • Family. Have you or your children recently married, remarried or divorced? Have you gained family members through birth, adoption or marriage?
  • Charitable Relationships. Have you become more involved in a particular ministry?
  • Time. Has it been more than three years since you last reviewed your will?

These and other life transitions warrant a close review of your plans!
