Identity Theft of Deceased Elderly

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
Identity theft happens this way all of the time !  There are companies that will come to your house or business and shred huge amounts of stuff for a very reasonable price. For example - there is a company called Shred It that will leave you a bin, you put everything in, they come back and shred it for you.  I would recommend shredding everything because a lot of identity theft happens the old fashioned way - by people getting credit card statements or social security numbers through the trash.  Also - many local banks offer days in which you can bring paper to be shredded.  good luck !

Is there a type of will in which I can add items to later without having to rewrite the whole will. IE jewlery,lenox and such

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
All of those items should be included in a memorandum that can be included with the Will document. That would allow you to add or delete from the memo without changing the Will. You should not list personal items like that in the Will.
