We live in a digital world. Our entire life is becoming stored online in the cloud, but very few people understand or plan for what this means from an asset transfer, management, and ownership standpoint. What happens to your emails, passwords, photos, and websites when you pass away? Honestly, it really depends on your level of planning. Most states now require you to do affirmative planning in order to pass on these assets to your heirs or to allow others to access the information. Failure to do such planning could leave your assets tied up forever in the cloud, unavailable to business partners or loved ones, causing tremendous hardship and financial damages. So learn the rules around digital asset ownership, transfer, and how to set up a digital asset estate under the new law RUFADAA.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand a workable process for planning for a client’s end of life
- Review the necessary documents for end-of-life planning
- Develop an understanding of the challenges to digital estate planning
- Review the best practices for digital asset planning under RUFADAA
- Determine a 10-step planning process of end-of-life planning
