	Talpos & Arnold: Michigan Attorneys, Estate Planning Law
		Without the expertise and knowledge needed, your entire estate may be distributed in ways that were not your intentions or your wishes.
		The laws regarding estate planning have changed significantly in the last 10 years and those estate plan documents that were signed many years ago may no longer meet your personal or financial objectives.
		For example, you named your divorced spouse as a beneficiary on your retirement plan, or named a married child of yours as joint owners with their spouse who is now divorced, or your estate may actually be in the control of your ex-spouse if your children are minors.

	Estate (law) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		An estate can be an estate for years, an estate at will, a life estate (extinguishing at the death of the holder) or a fee tail estate (to the heirs of one's body).
		The fee simple estate and the fee tail estate are estates of inheritance; they pass to the owner's heirs by operation of law, either without restrictions in the case of fee simple, or with restrictions in the case of fee tail.
		The estate for years and the life estate are estates not of inheritance; the owner owns nothing after the term of years has passed, and cannot pass on anything to their heirs.

	California Real Estate Law
		Real estate law often is referred to as the law of real property to distinguish it from the law of personal property, which includes all other property.
		Because real estate is one of the oldest areas of the law, it uses many old terms and concepts, but many rights and responsibilities regarding real estate have evolved and been updated as society has changed.
		Typically, ownership of real estate includes the right to sell (convey), the right to use the property as security for loans (encumber), the right to improve the land or buildings on the land, and the right to use and possess the property.
