Digital Estate Planning

 Just when you think you've finished all your estate planning tasks... what about your digital assets? 

"Your digital life includes dozens of usernames and passwords. Providing a digital estate plan can help your family deal with your accounts with minimal fuss" according to

"State laws such as the RUFADAA (Revised Uniform Fiduciary Access to Digital Assets Act) offer the executor of an estate or attorney access to a person’s online accounts after incapacitation or death. These laws help you to protect your digital assets. But you need a digital estate plan to enable your family to access your digital assets if you pass away."

Your digital estate includes all of your electronic and virtual accounts and assets, such as:

  • Social media accounts
  • Email accounts
  • Photos saved in the cloud

and much more!

Steps for creating a digital estate plan include:

1. Take inventory.

2. Decide how you want your digital assets handled.

3. Pick a digital executor.

4. Store your digital estate plan in a safe place.
