Why Every Adult Should Consider Estate Planning Now 📜

📅 Published on: March 31, 2025

Life is unpredictable — but your future doesn't have to be. Whether you're in your 30s or your 70s, creating a legally sound estate plan is one of the most important decisions you can make to protect your family, your assets, and your legacy. 💼💙

Yet, many adults in Delaware delay this crucial step — often until it’s too late.

At Delaware Mobile Signings, we help individuals and families notarize essential estate planning documents with care, confidentiality, and convenience.

🔍 What Is Estate Planning?

Estate planning is the process of legally outlining how your assets and responsibilities will be handled if you become incapacitated or pass away. It typically includes:

• 🖋️ Wills – Distributes property and personal belongings
  
  
• 🧾 Trusts – Manages assets, avoids probate, and sets long-term controls
  
  
• 🏥 Healthcare Directives – Outlines your wishes for medical care
  
  
• 💼 Powers of Attorney (POA) – Authorizes someone to act on your behalf
  
  

When these documents are not notarized, they can be contested in court — or even deemed invalid.

⚖️ Why Estate Planning Requires Notarization

Notarizing these documents ensures:

• ✅ The identity of the signer is verified
  
  
• ✅ The signer is of sound mind and not under pressure
  
  
• ✅ The document was signed voluntarily
  
  

This extra layer of authentication prevents fraud, protects your wishes, and provides peace of mind to your family.

📌 Delaware Note:
In Delaware, many estate documents must be notarized to be enforceable. A notary seal ensures the court recognizes your wishes without delay or confusion.

🚪 Real-World Scenario: Why It Matters

💬 "My mother passed away without a will. Her new spouse tried to claim everything—even though we had her verbal wishes. Without a notarized will, we had no proof."

We hear stories like this too often. A notarized will or POA can prevent costly legal battles and emotional trauma.
