In Depth Estate Planning CLE
ALI-ABA will sponsor a five day CLE from June 17-22, 2012 in Madison, WI entitled Estate Planning in Depth. An Optional Sunday afternoon session on wealth transfer taxation is also available. A description of the course is below:
Why Attend?
An intensive, interactive classroom experience complemented by opportunities to learn informally after hours from an expert faculty and from fellow registrants at a reception, a picnic supper, evenings at the Student Union, and more
Comprehensive study materials—typically 1,200 pages or more– that are among ALI-ABA’s best
A relaxed campus environment that helps make learning fun, plus an affordable housing and meal package that keeps costs low
A half-day Sunday primer that brings less experienced practitioners up to speed
Engaged registrants—last year from 31 states—and an expert faculty from across the country who share ideas with one another over the course of five days
A special panel discussion on what’s hot and what’s not in planning and administering estates in 2012, and a presentation on estate planning in these uncertain times
What You Will Learn
Presented at an advanced level and comprising more than 36 hours of instruction, including 2 hours of ethics credit, this annual course of study considers in depth significant tax and non-tax aspects of estate planning.
The course features an optional Sunday afternoon overview session (at no additional charge) on wealth transfer taxation principles, as well as a special panel discussion on what’s hot and what’s not in planning and administering estates in 2012 and a presentation on estate planning in these uncertain times.
Time is reserved throughout the program to address registrants’ questions.
Who Should Attend
The daytime sessions Monday through Friday are designed for lawyers with more than basic experience in estate planning. Practitioners lacking a foundational knowledge of trusts and estates law or wealth transfer taxation or who have a limited background in estate planning may benefit by careful preparation for every session, but basic material is addressed in the classroom sessions only as necessary to provide background for advanced understanding of more complex matters.
