CLE on Estate Planning Under the 2010 Act

CLE The ABA Section of Taxation is sponsoring a 90-minute Teleconference & live audio webcast entitled Moving Forward (2 Years at a Time) With Estate Planning Under the 2010 Act on January 5, 2011. The program description is below:

With the wonderland year of 2010 behind us and all last-minute gifts to grandchildren safely protected from GST tax, we can now settle back and enjoy estate planning with certainty in the law – at least for the next two years. This panel will review the estate, gift and GST tax provisions of the Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010 (the “2010 Act”), with an emphasis on its practical impact on estate planning going forward. Apart from reviewing the 2010 Act and how we arrived where we are, the panel will discuss the planning issues and opportunities with respect to portability of the estate tax exclusion amount, the increased GST tax exemption and gift tax exclusion, and the now familiar sunset provision.
