# Cabin Life: Passing Down the Family Cabin

Do you have a cabin succession plan? FMJ [Trusts & Estates](https://www.fmjlaw.com/practice-area/trusts-estates/) attorney [David Ness](https://www.fmjlaw.com/professional/david-m-ness/) wrote an article for *Cabin Life* magazine that outlines the importance of including a “cabin plan” in your family’s estate plan.

David advises that you involve family members in the discussion to determine everyone’s wishes; then, outline a succession plan for the property based on those wishes to avoid potential issues. He also explains various ways cabin succession plans can be laid out.

For all of David’s tips, see the entire article [**here**](https://cabinlife.com/articles/article/passing-down-the-family-cabin).
