In Michigan, both wills and trusts have their place in estate planning. A will is suitable for simple estates and clear asset distribution, while a trust is ideal for those seeking to avoid probate, retain more control over their assets, and ensure privacy.
Both spouses need to have a Will because even though the surviving spouse will become the outright owner of the property, they will need a Will to direct its disposition after their death. Since its impossible to predict which spouse will pass away first, having a Will is crucial for both individuals.
Including both types of documents in your Estate Plan is valid and accepted under California law. By doing so, you can take advantage of each tools benefits. For instance, perhaps you use your Will to state your end-of-life wishes and name a guardian for your children.
