"Can't I just use an online service to make my will?" It's a fair question. Online forms are quick and the upfront cost is low. Here's what's worth weighing:

📋 Online services build documents from the answers you type in. Many state that they are not law firms and can't give legal advice
🏠 They can't see how your home and accounts are titled, or whether your beneficiary forms match your plan
✍️ Michigan's signing and witnessing rules still apply, and a mistake may not surface until your family needs the document
👨‍👩‍👧 Blended families, a loved one with special needs, or a business call for judgment, not just a template

An online form can be a starting point. But a plan only counts if it works for your family when it matters most.

❌ MYTH: "My family already knows what I want, so I don't need it in writing."

✅ REALITY: Even the closest families can remember a conversation differently, especially during a hard time.

💬 A verbal promise isn't a legally binding plan
👨‍👩‍👧 Writing it down protects the people you love from guessing and from arguing

You don't have to have everything figured out to start. A short conversation is enough to find out what your family would actually face without a plan.

Book a free consultation and let's put your wishes on paper.

You did the hard part. You signed your estate plan. 🎉

Now for the question most people skip: if something happened tomorrow, could your family actually find it?

When a loved one passes or can't act for themselves, families lose precious time hunting for:

📄 The original will or trust
🔑 Powers of attorney and healthcare documents
🏦 A list of accounts and who to call
💻 Passwords or password-manager instructions
🏠 Deeds, titles, and insurance policies

The simple fix: tell your executor or trustee where everything is, and keep a one-page list in a place they can actually reach. (A locked box nobody can open doesn't help much!)

Not sure your documents are in order? Let's look at them together. 💙

A family came to us after a parent's health declined suddenly, worried they'd need to go to court for guardianship just to help. 💙

📝 Because their parent had signed a durable power of attorney years earlier, the family was able to step in and manage finances and care immediately — no courtroom, no delay.
⏳ Without that document, they would have faced a guardianship proceeding that can take weeks and involves the court overseeing ongoing decisions.

Every family's situation is different, but having this one document in place made an already hard time noticeably easier.

📞 Want to make sure your family has this kind of protection in place? Let's talk.

It's FAQ Friday — this week's question comes up a lot with clients relocating. 👇

❓ "I'm moving out of state. Does my Michigan will still work?"
Generally yes, but it's worth having it reviewed — some states have different requirements for executors, witnesses, or property.

❓ "What if I own property in two different states?"
That property may need its own additional planning to avoid a second, separate probate process in that state.

❓ "Do I need to redo my whole plan every time I move?"
Not usually — often it just needs a review, not a rewrite.

If you own or co-own a business, this question is worth asking today: what happens if you or your partner dies or becomes incapacitated? 🏢

📄 Without a buy-sell agreement, their ownership share can pass to a spouse or family member who has no interest — or ability — to run the business with you.
🤝 A buy-sell agreement sets a clear, funded process for buying out that share, on terms you both agreed to in advance.
💼 It protects the business, the surviving partner, and the deceased partner's family, all at once.

Legal update: the federal estate and gift tax exemption is now a permanent $15 million per person. 📋

📈 As of January 1, 2026, that's roughly $30 million for a married couple, with no scheduled sunset.
🔁 Portability still lets a surviving spouse use a deceased spouse's unused exemption.
🏠 Michigan has no separate state estate or inheritance tax on top of this.

Even without federal estate tax exposure, most families still need a will or trust to control who inherits, avoid probate, and name guardians — this number doesn't replace that.
