Milestone Will Review & Re-Writing

A will review and re-writing is the process of updating an existing will to reflect changes in a person's life. It is recommended to review a will every 3 to 5 years or after a major life event, such as a marriage (which automatically revokes a will made previously), divorce, birth of a child, or a change in financial circumstances. Rather than attempting to amend a will with a codicil, it is generally safer and clearer to draft a completely new will that explicitly revokes all previous versions. A professional review ensures the document remains legally valid and reflects your current wishes.
