Post-Divorce Estate Planning

Rebuilding Your Estate Plan After Divorce in Scottsdale, Peoria & Mesa

Divorce is a major life transition—and it often leaves estate plans outdated, incomplete, or unintentionally risky. Updating your estate plan after divorce is essential to protect your assets, your children, and your future.

At Windrose Law Center, we help individuals throughout Scottsdale, Peoria, and Mesa, Arizona navigate post-divorce estate planning with clarity, care, and practical legal guidance.

Why Estate Planning After Divorce Matters

Divorce changes more than relationships—it changes legal rights, financial priorities, and decision-making authority. Without updates, former spouses may remain listed as beneficiaries, agents, or fiduciaries.

Post-divorce estate planning allows you to:

  • Remove or revise former spouses from estate documents

  • Update beneficiary designations and account ownership

  • Reassess guardianship and trustee choices

  • Align your estate plan with new financial realities

  • Create a plan that supports your next chapter

What Post-Divorce Estate Planning Often Includes

Depending on your circumstances, post-divorce planning may involve:

  • Updating or creating a new will or trust

  • Revising powers of attorney and health care directives

  • Coordinating estate planning with divorce decrees or settlement terms

  • Reviewing retirement accounts, insurance policies, and real estate

  • Planning for minor children or blended family arrangements

Our role is to ensure your estate plan reflects your current life—not your past.

Moving Forward With Confidence

Post-divorce estate planning is not about revisiting what ended—it’s about creating stability and protection going forward. We take a practical, forward-looking approach designed to give you control, clarity, and peace of mind.
