Meet Your Cottage Trust Attorneys
Preserving Michigan Family Legacies Through Expert Cottage Trust Planning
At Kimball & Wells, we specialize in one of Michigan's most complex and consequential estate planning challenges: ensuring your family cottage remains a source of joy, not conflict, for generations to come. Our dedicated cottage trust attorneys have guided hundreds of Michigan families through the intricate legal landscape that governs vacation property succession.
Why Michigan Cottage Trusts Require Specialized Expertise
Your family cottage represents far more than real estate—it's the heart of cherished memories and the foundation of future family gatherings. Yet without proper planning, this beloved asset can quickly become a source of bitter disputes, forced sales, and devastating tax consequences.
Michigan's unique property tax system creates both extraordinary opportunities and hidden dangers for cottage owners. The state's "uncapping" rules can trigger massive tax increases when property transfers occur, potentially making your cottage unaffordable for the next generation overnight. Our attorneys have mastered the specific statutory exemptions that allow families to preserve their low tax assessments while transferring ownership seamlessly.
