Common Estate Planning Mistakes in Pennsylvania
Avoid the three most common estate planning mistakes Pennsylvania families make.
Estate planning mistakes are rarely dramatic.
They are usually silent.
Mistake one: relying solely on joint accounts without a broader strategy.
Mistake two: naming minor children as direct beneficiaries.
Mistake three: failing to update documents after major life changes.
Marriage, divorce, birth of a child, new business ownership — all require review.
Estate plans should be reviewed every three to five years.
Planning once is not planning forever.
If it has been years since you reviewed your documents, schedule a consultation with Sojourner Law, PLLC.
