SUMMARY:Speaker Series Webinar: What Some Estate Planners Overlook
DESCRIPTION:Register Now\n					\n						\n					\n				\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n					\n						Webinar Description \n					\n				\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n					\n						\n					\n				\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n					\n						Every estate planning client is different.  One example is Client A\, who doesn’t question the need to complete a detailed intake form that asks multiple questions about her assets\, her health\, and the lives of her children and other family members\, compared with Client B\, who sees estate planning as something easy that shouldn’t require providing so much information:  “Here are the names of my family members and what I want.  Please just write up my simple Will and Power of Attorney.” \n						What Client B may not understand is the importance of the requested information in completing a well-rounded estate plan.  Many attorneys can skip asking some of the more probing questions in order to move the engagement forward\, but that may not cover all of the issues that the client doesn’t realize they should address.  Those missed issues are often spotted only after the client or a family member dies\, and sometimes it’s too late. \n						  \n					\n				\n				\n					\n				\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n					\n						This webinar is designed to highlight issues that estate planners can easily overlook and provide ideas to educate clients on the importance of what may seem like irrelevant questions.  We’ll cover non-probate assets\, fiduciary selection\, potential beneficiary issues\, unique assets\, tax matters\, and trust funding.  Handouts will include sample language designed to both educate clients and potential clients about the importance of various issues and protect the attorney in situations where the client decides not to address those issues. \n						Join us for a conversation about issues that planners shouldn’t overlook\, and how to raise them with clients in a way that provides competent representation and the most complete estate plan possible \n					\n					\n						\n					\n				\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n					\n						InterActive Legal Speaker Series Presents \n					\n				\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n					\n						\n					\n				\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n				\n					\n					\n						Teresa L.

With instruction led by practicing attorneys and nationally recognized thought leaders\, the Academy is where legal theory meets real-world practice.\n\n\n\n\n\n“The Interactive Legal Tax Planning Course exceeded my expectations. It was substantive and well presented. I would enthusiastically recommend it for experienced trusts and estates attorneys like myself\, but also for any attorney who does estate planning work. In addition\, as the former national director of wealth planning for one of the largest planning groups in the wealth management industry\, I believe this course would be excellent for trust officers\, wealth planners\, and others who work with estate planning generally\, and trusts\, in particular. Terrific job by everyone at Interactive Legal.”Steve Pappaterra\, Attorney at LawCherry Hill\, New Jersey \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n“The Estate Planning Tax Series was excellent! All of the speakers are very knowledgeable and provided expertise instruction in their presentations. The covered topics were in-depth and comprehensive with very useful outlines and supporting materials! I will definitely refer to these in the future. Thank you for offering this great program! I highly recommend this Tax Series for everyone who works in estate planning!”Kelly Junkins\, Dominick Feld Hyde\, P.C.Birmingham\, Alabama \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n“The materials (slides and detailed outlines) were well done and easy to understand. The various speakers all knew their stuff. I have been in this field for decades and have an LL.M. in tax since 1983 and thought it was well done for the new person and the old timer like myself. And\, not without great merit\, the program cost was incredibly reasonable. Loved the sample language in the workshops. That by itself was worth the price of admission\, A legitimate 5 out of 5.”Jeffrey Askew\, Askew & Askew\, P.APort Saint Lucie\, Florida \n\n\n\n\n\n“The InterActive Legal Academy Estate Tax Planning Series has helped fill in holes in my knowledge that I did not even realize were there. I am a much better and more professional practitioner because of Interactive Legal. Thank you!” \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nBill Ramos\, Ramos Law\, P.A.Holly Springs\, NC \n\n\n\n\n\n“Although I’ve been a trusts/estates and tax lawyer for many years\, I learned something new at every session. Sometimes it was a new aspect of tax law I hadn’t focused on\, and other times\, I found myself “connecting the dots” better on concepts I had only generally known. I’d highly recommend this program for estate planners of all levels. Speakers and program materials were excellent.” \n\n\n\nSusan Parker\, Susan G. Parker Law Associates PCBriarcliff Manor\, NY
