Your estate plan should be based on your desires, family situation, estate size, and on applicable law, at the time the plan is devised and the will is executed. A plan that assumes the occurrence of particular future events may produce undesirable results if the planned future events do not occur. For example, a simple will may be sufficient to handle your estate planning needs but a change in your family or financial situation will have a significant impact on your plan. Therefore, we strongly recommend a periodic review of your estate plan in order to keep abreast of changes in both the law and your own personal situation.
