Add successor phone number

hi there my name is Bridget Makai I am an attorney and I practice in Petaluma California in the area of estate planning and trusts and probate administrations and today I'm going to talk about in my blog the little things that make a big difference to your successor trustee or executor you have completed your will or your trust and you feel everything's in order and if it's a trust all your assets have been transferred into it and you can move on with the rest of your life but another area in which you might want to add to your trust or you or your will is a list of your service providers and their contact information and by service providers I mean those people that do things for you in for you in your life that list could make a difference to your successor trustee if you should become incapacitated because they'll need to contact all those folks and you'll want to include any account numbers attached to these service providers if they have them you can break them up into categories I would suggest so those that you use around your house like a gardener a house cleaner a pet sitter who is your internet and cable provider who is your energy provider who runs your garbage out who provide your water typically cities but all of those things even though you may think your successor trustee or your executor knows this it's important to have a list and phone numbers on how to contact these people also who provides for your telephone and your cell phone another category are your medical providers and I don't mean necessarily your doctor or who your medical insurance is clearly you should leave that information for them but also other folks that provide services for you like a chiropractor a dentist a massage therapist and then finally your personal care services when you become incapacitated you may not be able to tell them where you like to get your hair done so your hairdresser should know what's going on if you have young children who typically provides for them that pay to do that you know for women maybe even the people who do your nails or clean your skin you may not think it's something you're going to be thinking about when you're incapacitated but you would be surprised how many of those services are such a nice treat for someone who has something like dementia or Alzheimer's so if you use these services regularly let's say ladies out there you know getting your hair done you do that maybe on a bi-weekly monthly every five week basis you need to make a note of it in this list that you're going to create and having this list in the same location as your plan like in a binder or a folder or a file will allow your loved ones and your successor trustees to have everything they need to take care of you in your assets you
