confirm that your assets go where you want

some things to consider…

not naming a beneficiary may result in assets going through probate – a court supervised process make sure you have beneficiaries listed on your life insurance and retirement accounts

naming your estate as beneficiary may cause an asset to go through probate including specific names may be more appropriate to ensure your wishes will be met

minor children can’t legally control assets consider a trust to manage and disburse the assets according to your wishes

keep beneficiary designations up-to-date life events such as a marriage, divorce or birth of a child may require that beneficiaries be added or subtracted

ensuring loved ones will be taken care of, especially when we aren’t around, is one way to have a fulfilling life

be certain that your wishes are being met
