Everyone is trying to protect themselves and their families at this time. According to CNBC, the two populations that have rushed to create online wills are parents with minor children and people over 50 who are concerned about contracting the disease.Older adults especially have been creating or amending their estate plans, because according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, eight out of 10 deaths from COVID-19 in the U.S. have been in adults 65 years of age and older."Coronavirus is unique in that it has changed public perception on estate planning," said Esq. Principal Attorney at Jancosek Law, APC Jennifer Jancosek. "The continued uncertainty of how the virus will affect our lives and our families has led many people to seek help in preparing for whatever emergency situation may come next."Even if people aren't worried about getting COVID-19, they are now faced with the fact that life is precious, and some illness or disease can quickly take it away. They want to be prepared just in case the worst happens."While the pandemic may be an uncomfortable reminder that we never know what's around the corner, things can also happen to you in non-pandemic times," said Anna Barker, personal finance expert and founder of LogicalDollar. "This is exactly why you should always have a valid, up to date estate plan."
