“I Need a Trust” – What Every Client Is Asking for These Days
There are three basic estate planning documents in New Jersey – a will, power of attorney and health care directive. Trusts have become more popular due in part to a surge in online marketing on why clients need a trust in addition to a will. Should our clients believe everything they read?
This program will explore some of the common reasons clients give for wanting a trust. The seminar will separate fact from fiction about what a trust can accomplish over a will. Speakers will take a deep dive into the most common type of trust – the revocable living trust.
In this new program, you will learn about contesting a living trust versus a will and whether the notice of probate rules apply to living trusts.
Topics include:
- When do clients need a trust
- How to deal with clients who insist on a trust regardless of need
- Revocable living trusts
- Contesting a living trust and appliable rules
Speakers:
Timothy M. Ferges, Partner, McCarter & English
Adam M. Grenker, Partner, Fox Rothschild
Nicholas W. Keller, Associate, McCarter & English
Please note there is a cost to attend. CLE credits are available.
