Key Takeaways

• Estate planning documents to consider include a last will and testament, a durable power of attorney, an advanced medical directive, and a healthcare power of attorney.
• Trusts are helpful in managing financial assets or providing for dependents with disabilities.
• Beneficiaries should be set up on retirement plans and life insurance policies; these should also be reviewed periodically as circumstances change over time.
• TODs (transfer on death) should be established on bank accounts to keep money out of probate in the event of the owner's death.
• Funeral plans should include any specific wishes to avoid confusion when that time comes.
