Drafting Wills for Challenging Family Dynamics

Drafting estate planning instruments for clients whose definition of family is one that is fluid and inclusive is more important than ever. Estate planning attorneys have traditionally been accustomed to drafting provisions that exclude family members but doing so without caution may invite a successful probate challenge or worse. In this interactive workshop participants will learn about: 1. Drafting for clients with chosen family, though their biological family members are alive, and no adoption ever took place 2. Designing provisions for Lawful Permanent Residents who have U.S. citizen children but who otherwise have primarily non-U.S. family. 3. Crafting provisions that address disproportionate gifting and that assist in avoiding probate and probate challenges

Proper Care and Feeding of an Estate Plan: How to Prepare Better For Post-Death Administration of Estates and Trusts Long Before The Client Actually Dies

P9004-21E1-10X
Once estate planning documents have been signed and assets have been retitled, clients may feel like they are “finished” with their planning. Typically, they put their documents in a drawer and assume that their executor or trustee will deal with everything post-death. Understand the importance of organizing and updating asset and liability information, learn strategies for dealing with tricky assets and minimizing the risk of family conflict, and review the importance of documenting certain wishes that may not be expressly written into the will or trust. Plus learn about effective communication techniques with and among the plan’s key stakeholders.
