How will your loved ones be taken care of after you are gone? What will happen to your business interests and assets after you die? Who will speak for you if you are unable to communicate for yourself? Who will raise your children? Who will receive your estate assets, and when? Are there specific people you need to include in your plan (or exclude)?  Do you realize that even if you don’t have a plan in place, the State of Michigan has one for you, and you likely will not like it.  Your needs and wishes are specific to you, and your estate plan should be specifically tailored to make sure they are carried out.

Have you started a new business or purchased an existing one? Have you been told to form an LLC, but are confused as to what that actually means. Are you performing activities with a nonprofit purpose, but haven’t formed an actual business entity or filed for tax-exempt status yet?  There are legal “pros and cons” for each different business entity type: sole-proprietorship, partnership, limited liability company, or corporation, and for profit versus nonprofit. The business entity type appropriate for you is dependent on your specific situation and short and long-terms plans for your business.
