Wills & Healthcare Powers of Attorney
Grand Rapids Probate Attorney providing Wills, Living Wills, and Healthcare Directives
What is a Will?
A will is a legal document that outlines your final intentions after death. It typically includes provisions for the distribution of property, payment of debts, and the appointment of a personal representative. Crucially, it allows you to name a guardian and conservator for minor children. Without a will, your assets are distributed according to the Michigan intestate probate code—which may not align with your actual wishes.
Pro Tip: Every Michigan probate court offers "safekeeping" for a small fee. You can file your original will with the probate court clerk, ensuring it is protected and easily located by the court when needed.
Healthcare Directives
Living Will
A document stating your intention not to be placed on life support systems if there is no likelihood of leading a functional life in the future.
Healthcare Power of Attorney
Gives authority to a trusted relative or friend to make medical decisions for you in the event you are incapacitated.
Affordable Protection
Preparation of a basic will, living will, and healthcare power of attorney can be as low as $400.00. Probating an estate is typically handled via an hourly fee, often starting as low as $1,000, which is paid directly from the estate assets.
