Back-to-school planning isn’t just about backpacks, schedules, and school supplies.

For parents of young children, this season can also be a good reminder to think about the plans you have in place for your family. Who would care for your children if you couldn’t? Who would manage an inheritance on their behalf? Do your current documents still reflect your family today?

Our latest blog covers guardianship, trusts, inheritance planning, and other estate planning decisions parents should consider as their families grow.

Read the full blog to learn what you may want to review this school year.

# data[].attributes.body
Grief is a journey that looks different for everyone.

National Grief Awareness Day reminds us that there is no right way to grieve and no set timeline for healing. A listening ear, a kind gesture, or simply being present can make a meaningful difference for someone who is navigating the loss of a loved one.

It is also a reminder to have important conversations before they are needed. Thoughtful estate planning can help provide clarity and ease the burden on families during some of life's most difficult moments.

At Bassett Murray Law Group, PLLC, we are committed to helping families prepare for the future with compassion and care.

Women's Equality Day reminds us that meaningful progress is built over time.

The adoption of the 19th Amendment marked a historic milestone, opening the door to greater participation and opportunity for women in civic life. Since then, generations of women have continued to shape our communities through leadership, innovation, service, and advocacy.

Today is an opportunity to reflect on that progress while recognizing the work that continues to create opportunities for future generations.

From all of us at Bassett Murray Law Group, PLLC, we wish you a meaningful Women's Equality Day.

Summer is a wonderful time to make memories with the people you love. But enjoying those moments is easier when you know the important decisions have already been made.

This Family Fun Month, take time to enjoy the moments that matter most, knowing you've taken steps to help protect the people you love. If it's been a while since you reviewed your estate plan, Bassett Murray Law Group, PLLC is here to help.

August is Make a Will Month, a timely reminder to put your wishes in writing.

A will can help clarify how your assets should be handled, name the person you trust to manage your estate, and provide guidance for the care of minor children. Without one, important decisions may be left to state law rather than your own preferences.

Creating or updating a will is an important part of a complete estate plan. Bassett Murray Law Group, PLLC can help you review your options and make sure your plan reflects your current wishes.

[Post - JULY] What a Trustee Actually Does (And Why It’s Not Just ‘Managing Money’) | Scheduled 07.15.26

# data[].attributes.body
It's easy to think a trustee's role is simply managing money. In reality, the responsibilities extend far beyond overseeing financial accounts.

A trustee is responsible for carrying out the instructions in a trust, managing assets responsibly, keeping accurate records, communicating with beneficiaries, and acting in their best interests. It's a role that requires organization, sound judgment, and a commitment to honoring the wishes of the person who created the trust.

Selecting the right trustee is an important part of the estate planning process. If you're creating a trust or reviewing an existing estate plan, our team can help you understand your options and choose an approach that best supports your goals.

Many people assume their bank can simply step in and help if they become incapacitated or pass away. In reality, banks must follow the law and the terms of your account. They cannot make financial decisions or grant access without the proper legal authority.

Having documents such as a financial power of attorney and an up-to-date estate plan can help ensure the right person is able to manage your affairs if the unexpected happens.

If you have questions about protecting your finances or preparing for the future, our team is here to help you understand your options and create a plan that fits your needs.

Mental health is just as important as physical health, especially as we age. Are you checking in on the emotional well-being of the people you love, including yourself?

Many older adults face challenges such as isolation, anxiety, memory concerns, and major life transitions that can impact overall well-being. At the same time, caregivers often carry emotional stress while balancing the needs of others.

Supporting mental wellness starts with connection, conversation, and having the right support systems in place. No one should feel like they have to navigate these challenges alone. 💙

# data[].attributes.body
Are you prepared for what happens legally when your child with special needs becomes an adult?

Turning 18 means parents no longer automatically have the authority to make medical or financial decisions. For many families, this comes as a surprise.

Planning ahead may include tools such as powers of attorney, or in some cases, guardianship. The right approach depends on your child’s needs, abilities, and long-term goals.

Having a plan in place can help provide structure, protect their future, and give your family peace of mind. 💙

# data[].attributes.body
Turning 18 comes with more responsibility than most people realize. Have you put the right documents in place?

Advance directives allow you to name a trusted individual to make medical decisions if you are unable to do so. Without them, even close family members may not have the legal authority to step in when it matters most.

This is not just for seniors. Every adult can benefit from having basic planning documents in place to protect their wishes and avoid unnecessary complications.

A simple plan today can make a meaningful difference later.

If you were unable to make medical decisions for yourself, who would speak for you?

National Healthcare Decisions Day is an important reminder to put a plan in place before it is needed. Advance directives allow you to clearly outline your care preferences and appoint someone you trust to make decisions on your behalf.

Without these documents, families are often left navigating difficult choices without clear guidance, and in some cases, without the legal authority to act.

Taking the time to have these conversations now can provide clarity, reduce stress, and ensure your wishes are respected.

When is guardianship the right step for your family?

There may come a time when a loved one needs more than support. They need legal protection. Whether it is an aging parent experiencing memory loss or a child with special needs reaching adulthood, these moments can be difficult to navigate without clear authority.

Guardianship is a serious legal process, but in the right circumstances, it can provide stability, safety, and peace of mind. Planning ahead can help ensure your loved one is protected when it matters most.

If you are starting to ask these questions, it may be time to explore your options.

Not all trusts work the same way. A trust created through a will still goes through probate, while a living trust created during your lifetime can help avoid it altogether.

Revocable trusts offer flexibility and control, while irrevocable trusts can provide valuable asset protection.

Understanding which trust aligns with your goals is key to protecting your estate and your family. 🛡️

Are you confident the trust you have chosen truly supports your estate planning goals?

No one wants to think about needing long term care, but planning ahead can bring comfort and confidence. Medicaid planning allows families to prepare in advance instead of making rushed decisions during difficult moments.

Whether you are thinking years ahead or facing an urgent care situation, having a plan can make a meaningful difference for your family.

Would having a clear plan help you feel more at ease about the future? 💭

Many people assume their spouse can automatically manage everything if something happens to them. In reality, Michigan law does not grant full access to all assets or decision making authority without proper legal documents.

A durable power of attorney ensures your spouse or chosen agent can access retirement accounts, manage investments, and handle financial obligations without court involvement. 📂

Are you relying on assumptions instead of clear legal authority for your spouse or loved one?

If you have a loved one with special needs, planning for their future can feel overwhelming. Many families worry about how financial support will continue while protecting access to critical benefits like SSI and Medicare. 💙

A special needs trust allows you to set aside funds for your child or family member without putting those benefits at risk. It also gives you the opportunity to name a trusted person to manage those assets in the future.

Are you confident your loved one will be financially supported when you are no longer able to help?

Contact Bassett Murray Law Group today to learn how a special needs trust can bring peace of mind.

# data[].attributes.body
Trust administration does not always go as smoothly as families expect. When a trustee fails to follow the rules or puts their own interests first, it can put the entire trust at risk. ⚖️📂

Michigan law allows for trustee removal in certain situations, but the process requires careful steps and legal guidance.

If you believe a trust is being mismanaged, our team is here to help you understand your options and protect your interests.

[Post - DEC] Important Notice for Northern Michigan Residents: Major Medicare Plan Changes for 2026 | Scheduled 12.04.25

# data[].attributes.body
Big changes are coming to Medicare plans in the northern lower peninsula and upper peninsula. Several insurance companies are updating or discontinuing plans for 2026, and many members may lose coverage if they do not take action.

Blue Cross Blue Shield and Blue Care Network are discontinuing two of their most popular plans next year. Aetna has discontinued some plans, renamed others, and will offer only three total plans for 2026. Priority Health has discontinued one plan and has already moved most affected members to alternate coverage.

If you are currently enrolled with Blue Cross Blue Shield, Blue Care Network, Aetna, or Priority Health, your coverage may end on January 1, 2026 if you do nothing. Anyone enrolled in a discontinued plan has a Special Enrollment Period through December 31, 2025 to choose a new plan. Taking steps now is extremely important.

If you need help reviewing your options, we can connect you with trusted insurance representatives in the area:

When a child with special needs becomes a legal adult at 18, parents often ask if guardianship is necessary. The answer depends on your child’s ability to manage daily decisions and protect their own interests.

In Michigan, guardianship can give parents or caregivers the legal authority to continue providing the support their adult child needs while respecting their independence whenever possible. ⚖️

For 250 years, the United States Navy has been a pillar of protection and a force for justice on the seas. Their mission of service, sacrifice, and leadership has shaped our nation and safeguarded countless lives.

In our practice, we work to embody these same principles of service to others, unwavering commitment, and steady guidance during uncertain times. Whether in a courtroom or at sea, resilience and preparedness make all the difference.

Today, we proudly salute the men and women of the U.S. Navy and thank them for their courage, discipline, and dedication. May their legacy of service continue to inspire us all.
