Filing for divorce or separating from a spouse does not automatically update your estate plan.
Your will.
Your trust.
Your power of attorney.
Your health care proxy.
Your beneficiary designations.
If your ex is still listed anywhere, that authority may still be valid. I see this mistake all the time and it always creates a problem later.
If you’re recently divorced (or in the middle of it), this is something you should put on your to-do list ASAP.
