Estate Planning
Michigan’s Go-To Estate Planning Resource
Legacies don’t just happen; they are built over time. And Shea Law’s mission is to make sure those legacies are preserved, protected, and seamlessly passed on to those our clients care about.
“It’s as easy as 1…2…3…”
Shea Law simplifies the process by using its proprietary technology to complete your estate plan in 30 days or
less through three easy steps.
1. Schedule your complimentary consultation
2. Meet your attorney
3. Finalize your trust
Schedule Your Complimentary Legal Consultation
Our user-friendly process makes estate planning simple, ensuring you have the right documents to meet your goals and needs.
The first step is to schedule a no-fee consultation with one of our many estate planning attorneys. This attorney meeting can be booked through your dedicated legal concierge. Our legal concierges gather basic information and help answer any initial questions or concerns you may have. Most importantly, they’ll ensure you are paired with the right attorney for your unique situation.
During your upcoming attorney meeting, you’ll discuss estate planning strategies to ensure your documents align perfectly with your goals and wishes. For your convenience, you can meet with our attorneys either in person at our Southfield location or online through Zoom or Microsoft Teams. Most clients prefer online meetings for added flexibility.
There’s no fee for this consultation unless you choose to proceed with our services to create your estate plan.
Next Steps to Connect
Our Estate Plans
Our flexible and highly customizable online and hybrid service options allow our clients to select an estate planning consultation option that meets their individual needs and personal preferences.
Will
A will is an essential document that allows you to control who inherits your assets and who becomes guardians of any minor children should something happen to you.
Trust
In addition to questions of inheritance and guardianship, a trust comes with additional benefits: it protects your heirs from creditors, avoids what can be a costly and time-consuming probate process, and ensures that the private affairs of you and your family remain out of the public domain.
Following the death of a loved one, probate can be a complex and overwhelming process.
Shea Law has unique expertise to help you through the process.
Probate
Probate is the process of administering a person’s will or estate after they pass. A trusted and capable executor or administrator will pay any liabilities on the estate and distribute the assets to the right beneficiaries.

Estate Planning is a Journey—Not a Destination
Shea Law believes strongly that estate planning is a journey: an ongoing process, not a set-it-and-forget-it event. Wills and trusts are not just fill-in-the-blank legal forms sold through some online website. A good estate plan requires collaboration with an attorney to ensure peace of mind that client decisions will be honored and legacies will properly pass on to loved ones with ease and grace. Shea attorneys understand that the best estate planning counsel encompasses this ideal and collaborate with clients to develop comprehensive and customized estate plans to address their personal and professional intentions. A family-led firm, Shea’s experience, accessible pricing, and high-touch service create close and enduring client relationships. A rare combination of deep empathy and deep expertise inspires trust, with clients confident that they are in capable and caring hands.
