How to Edit Information in Your Estate Plan Documents

While you can't make direct edits to the final PDF documents, your can edit your Estate Plan via the website which will then automatically update the digital PDF documents in your account.

What parts of my Trust or Will documents can I change?

You can edit any of the information in the sections you went through when you first created your Estate Plan, including:

  • Basic information, including name, email, relationship status, children, state
  • Guardians, including Primary and Backup, for children or pets
  • Assets
  • Distributions, including Beneficiaries, Exclusions, Executors, Gifts, Charitable Donations, etc
  • Arrangements, including Resting Place, Ceremony, and any special instructions
  • Health care, including Primary and Backup Health Care Agents, care instructions, organ donation, access to medical records, etc

You are unable to edit Power of Attorney documents online due to various federal and state regulations. So we provide you with a template, then it just needs to be completed by hand.
