Free Estate Planning Workshops in Grand Blanc, MI
One evening. Plain answers. No obligation to hire anyone.
If you know you should have a plan in place but aren't sure where to start, our free monthly workshop is the right first step. Craig Fiederlein — with more than 30 years of estate planning experience in Genesee County — walks you through Michigan's estate planning basics in plain language, so you leave with a clear picture of what you have, what you need, and what to do next.
Trust challenges and beneficiary disputes
What You'll Learn at the Workshop
Estate planning covers more ground than most people expect. In a single evening, we cover the topics that matter most to Michigan families:
The difference between a will and a trust — and when each one makes sense
How probate works in Michigan and how a proper plan can help your family avoid it
Revocable and irrevocable trusts, including how they're used for asset protection
Special needs trusts for families supporting a dependent with a disability
Medicaid planning strategies for long-term care and nursing home costs
Guardianship and conservatorship — what happens if you can't speak for yourself
You don't need to know anything before you arrive. The workshop is designed for people who are starting from zero.

What Past Attendees Have Said
Why CF Legal Runs These Workshops
Most people put off estate planning because they don't know what they don't know. They're not ready to hire an attorney, they're not sure what questions to ask, and they don't want to feel pressured into decisions they don't fully understand.
We started these workshops to solve that problem. Come in, ask questions, and get honest answers — from an attorney with more than three decades of experience serving Genesee County families. If you decide you're ready to move forward after the workshop, we're here. If you're not, that's fine too.
No other law firm in the Flint area offers consistent free public education on estate planning. We think that says something about how we approach this work.
Local Court Familiarity
Legal outcomes can depend on local processes; working with someone familiar with Will County courts helps avoid unnecessary delays.
