Estate Planning

Manage wealth for your future, and theirs.

With nearly two centuries of experience in trust and estate planning for individuals and their families, Wachovia will work in conjunction with your personal attorney to offer valuable perspective for your unique circumstances.

It is vitally important to properly structure and regularly review your estate plan to be sure it addresses your family's needs.

• Create (and update) your will.
  As the essential component of your estate plan, your will is a primary document for transferring your wealth upon your death. Time spent now deciding how you wish your legacy to be passed on to your heirs will avoid problems for you heirs later.
• Review your estate plan.
  Lifestyle changes trigger a need to review your estate plan. Consider a reassessment when you are changing marital status, having or adopting children, changing jobs, or moving.
• Choose your executor.
  Settling an estate is a complex process that often spans many months. Choosing an executor or personal representative who is knowledgeable and will be available to settle your estate is important to your peace of mind as well as the security of your loved ones.

Estate Settlement
