Do I need different estate planning documents as I get older?
Yes, your estate planning needs evolve significantly as you move through different life stages. Young adults typically start with basic wills and beneficiary designations, while growing families often need trusts to protect children and manage assets. Retirees may focus more on tax planning, healthcare directives, and ensuring smooth wealth transfer. Major life events like marriage, divorce, having children, or acquiring significant assets usually trigger the need for updated or additional estate planning documents.
