What Is an Estate Plan?
An estate plan is a set of legal documents that ensures your wishes are followed if you become incapacitated or pass away. Estate planning is not about wealth—it is about control, clarity, and protection.
A Michigan estate plan answers critical questions such as who will make medical decisions for you, who will manage your finances, who will care for your children, and how your assets will be distributed.
What Is a Single Estate Plan?
A Single Estate Plan is designed specifically for individuals who are not married, including single parents, divorced individuals, widows or widowers, and never‑married adults. Without an estate plan, Michigan law—not you—decides what happens.
Do I Need an Estate Plan If I Don’t Have Many Assets?
Yes. Even modest estates benefit from estate planning. You likely still have accounts, personal property, and people who depend on you. More importantly, estate planning protects your ability to make decisions—not just distribute assets.
Single With a Child? Estate Planning Is Essential
If you are a single parent, an estate plan allows you to name guardians, control how and when assets are distributed to your child, and reduce court involvement during an already difficult time.
What a Single Estate Plan Can Include
A properly designed single estate plan may include a will or trust, medical power of attorney, financial power of attorney, health care directives, and guardian designations.
