Via the Wills, Trusts & Estates Prof Blog comes this helpful article from Elder Law Answers about being sure to include email access in your estate plan.

Many people wisely visit their attorney to make an estate plan to provide for their family and facilitate a smooth transition of their hard earned wealth and handling their last affairs. But most people don’t think about digital estate planning – emails, Facebook, LinkedIn, computer passwords, online banking and investment accounts, YouTube video accounts, Flickr and other photo sharing sites, and even contents of computers and smart phones. Be sure your digital assets are protected with a digital estate plan. If our firm, Johnson Law KC LLC, can help you with your digital estate planning needs, call (913-707-9220) or email us (steve@johnsonlawkc.com) for a convenient appointment.
