Already have an estate plan? Life changes can make old documents worth reviewing.

Consider a review after a marriage or divorce, the birth or adoption of a child, the death or incapacity of someone named in your plan, a move to another state, or a major change involving your home, business, or finances.

Even without a major event, a periodic review can uncover outdated names, property information, and beneficiary choices.

Our latest article explains what Illinois families should know about wills, trusts, health care powers of attorney, and keeping a plan current. It provides general information and is not legal advice.

A will, a trust, and a health care power of attorney do not all do the same job.

A will can provide instructions for administering your estate. A properly funded trust may help manage and transfer appropriate assets. A health care power of attorney names someone to make medical decisions if you cannot.

The right combination depends on your family, property, existing documents, and goals. Our new article explains the differences in plain language and why these documents should be reviewed together.

This article provides general information. An Illinois attorney should review your specific circumstances.

Fantastic experience very quick and professional

Estate planning is easy to postpone. The problem is that an illness or accident may not wait until you feel ready.

A thoughtful plan can give your family clearer instructions, identify the people you trust, and provide legal authority when important decisions must be made. Depending on your circumstances, that may include a will or trust and a health care power of attorney.

You do not need to have every answer before meeting with an attorney. You just need to start the conversation.

Our latest article explains the essential documents, when to review an existing plan, and how to prepare for the first meeting. This article provides general information and is not legal advice.
