General Estate Planning Guidelines

Now that you have completed the creation of your Last Will and Testament, you should consider other simple, but very important, changes to make in other estate planning tools.  The essential estate planning documents purchased from our virtual law office accomplish the core of your estate plan, but other components of your plan must be completed through other means.

Specifically, you should confirm or change your beneficiary designations on life insurance, bank accounts, retirement plans, and other accounts and products not directly governed by your estate planning documents.  To help you in this process, we have created these general guidelines and suggested language for your use.  Please be careful and select the instructions that apply to your particular circumstances.
