The most common feeling among people who put an appropriate estate plan in place is being able to have peace of mind.  If you're unsure of whether you have one in place, start with a simple conversation about it.  If you do have one, it's always a good idea to have it reviewed on a regular basis, since the legislative landscape can change or your personal circumstances may change over time.

One common misconception is that only the elderly need an estate plan. No matter the age, or how small or large your assets are, it's best to ask questions and get educated.  Having an appropriate estate plan can be an important way to protect your family and loved ones.
