Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Michigan

Re: Will Exclusions

Once property is passed to your son, it become marital property and subject to a divorce or his wife's creditors. It is possible to keep an inheritance for the benefit of your son without being subject to claims by his wife or her creditors by means of a trust. This can be accomplished with either a revocable living trust, an irrevocable trust, or a testamentary trust. But your average will cannot exclude your son's wife.
