I would contact an attorney in the new state and have it reviewed and revised as needed. Bottom line, even in the same state laws and court rulings tend to slightly move over time. It is probably good to get a review every 5 years. Not only incase laws change, but so you can discuss and spend time reviewing any adjustments that you might need to make due to life circumstances.

I am a fairly studied person... but I recognize my limitations. It is money well spent to seek the advice of a good estate attorney. Make it part of your 5 year financial checkup.
