BOSTON - Washingtoner -- Five Avoidable Surprises That DERAIL Even the Best Estate Plans, the new white paper from the law firm of Simmons & Schiavo provides critical information for anyone seeking guidance about the finer points of estate planning. It focuses on ways that an estate plan, even a well-drafted one, can have unintended consequences.
An estate plan can be well-drafted and address many concerns, however, changes in family/relationships, wealth/assets, the law, or one's health are reasons to update that estate plan. Failure to do so can lead to surprisingly disastrous consequences. A regular review of your legal affairs with an attorney is vital to making sure that a person's estate planning goals are achieved and are not derailed. There are four other surprises to avoid which are addressed in the white paper.
