When Do I Need to Change My Will?
If you have a living trust and want to change its terms, you can add an amendment to the original document. You may then need to transfer property in or out of the trustee's name. Unlike a will, you do not usually revoke a trust and start over if you want to make a change.
Remember to review your entire estate plan periodically to see if there are any changes you want to make. Once a year would not be too often.
