Helen Forster, a director at HTF Legal Limited, discusses with the Genealogy Guy the importance of digital legacy planning. She highlighted that only 27% of people know what will happen to their digital assets upon death, and only 9% have a clear plan. Digital assets include monetary investments and sentimental items like photos. She emphasized the need for digital executors to manage these assets, noting that 1 in 4 estates are contested. Forster also discussed the challenges of accessing digital assets post-death, such as needing passwords or thumbprints. She advised creating digital backups and shared folders to ensure family access to important data.
