A will is essential, but it may not control every asset.

Beneficiary designations on life insurance policies, retirement accounts, and certain financial accounts can determine who receives those assets—even if your will says otherwise. That is why reviewing them as part of your estate plan matters.

Our team at Naumann & Associates helps individuals and families in Elk Grove Village and throughout Illinois align beneficiary designations with their wills, trusts, and overall estate planning goals.

If it has been a while since you reviewed your estate plan, contact our office at (847) 593-8777 to schedule a conversation.

When was the last time you reviewed your estate plan? If your answer is “it has been a while,” you are not alone. Many people assume their estate plan is complete once it is signed, but in reality, it should be revisited over time to ensure it continues to reflect your wishes.

Here are a few key things to keep in mind:

🔹Regular Reviews Matter - It is often recommended that you review your estate plan every three to five years to keep it aligned with your current circumstances.

🔹Life Change Updates - Events like marriage, divorce, or welcoming a child should prompt a timely review, ideally within 60 to 90 days after the event.

🔹Know the Common Triggers - The “5 Ds” (death, disability, divorce, distance, and descendants) are considered the most common triggers for a review.

An estate plan should grow and change with you. If it has been a few years since your last review, our team is here to help. Contact us today to get started.

A strong business is built on more than a great idea. It also needs clear agreements, thoughtful planning, and legal safeguards that support growth.

From entity formation and operating agreements to contracts, compliance, and commercial disputes, our team provides practical counsel tailored to your goals.

Before you sign a real estate contract, make sure you understand what is—and is not—on the page.

For Illinois buyers and sellers, attorney review is an important opportunity to identify concerns, clarify key terms, and help ensure the agreement reflects your goals. From contingencies and timelines to inspection issues, financing, closing obligations, and potential risks, the details matter.

At Naumann & Associates, our real estate attorneys provide thoughtful, responsive guidance throughout the contract review and closing process for clients in Elk Grove Village and the northwest Chicago suburbs.

If you are buying or selling property, contact our office at (847) 593-8777 to discuss your contract before the attorney review period ends.

As you might know, August is National Make a Will Month — making now the perfect time to revisit one of the most crucial parts of an estate plan.

Wills provide clear legal direction so your intentions can be carried out the way you want upon your passing. Without a will in place, such decisions may be left to the state, which might not carry out your intentions the way you would prefer.

With this in mind, we wanted to share a brief overview of some commonly asked questions about wills. Swipe for more information.

If you would like to review your current will or talk through how it fits into your overall estate plan, feel free to reach out. We are always happy to walk through your situation with you and help identify any gaps or updates that may be worth addressing.
