New York Elder Law Attorney
This year Passover and Easter holidays are within the same week, and so we are sending our best wishes to all of our friends, colleagues and family members. Whether you are celebrating Passover, Easter or the Spring Equinox, we hope this holiday finds you surrounded by those you love and the joys of the spring season.
Spring holidays are centered on a message of hope for the future, a time of renewal and a time to clean out the leftovers from the winter that has passed and prepare for the coming of new growth.
While you are enjoying your family’s holiday traditions, we encourage you to think about the future and what plans you may have made for yourself and your family. If we haven’t seen you or reviewed your estate plan in the last three to five years, we recommend having a conversation with myself or Scott to review your situation.
Estate planning is a lot of like dentistry. Few people enjoy going to the dentist, but most of us enjoy leaving the office at least once a year knowing that our teeth are super-clean and we’ve taken care of this task.
Estate plans have a longer shelf-life—about three or five years, notwithstanding any major life events. If you’ve had any large changes in your life, from selling a business to welcoming a new child, losing a loved one or getting married, your estate plan needs to be updated to be sure it still reflects your wishes.
If your spring plans include a thorough clean up after the holidays are over, we invite you to contact us to make an appointment to review your estate plan. You’ll feel great knowing it’s all taken care of.
We hope you enjoy your holiday gatherings and look forward to hearing from you soon.
