ANN ARBOR, Mich. - Michimich -- Pear Sperling Eggan & Daniels, P.C. is encouraging Michigan residents to take steps now to ensure loved ones can access important digital accounts and records in the future.

Digital assets can include family photographs stored in cloud accounts, email accounts, social media profiles, online financial accounts, cryptocurrency, and other electronically stored information. While many individuals focus on protecting traditional assets, they often overlook the legal challenges associated with transferring digital property after death.

Michigan's Fiduciary Access to Digital Assets Act provides certain rights to fiduciaries, but access to digital content may require express authorization from the account owner. Without proper planning, family members may encounter significant obstacles when attempting to recover valuable information or treasured family memories.
