About the Seminar - Computer Based Audio ONLY programs (No Video) - DOES NOT QUALIFY FOR CLE BIG TICKET
Counseling clients about choosing the right trust for their goals is a formidable task of helping them identify what's truly important to them and then guiding them through an alphabet soup of alternatives, each of which poses tradeoffs. Some trusts are flexible and offer no tax benefits; others offer substantial tax savings at the cost of control and flexibility. These and a multitude of other tradeoffs are also complicated by the new tax law which alters the estate and gift tax regime. But getting the choice right is essential because altering a trust, particularly post-mortem, can be extremely difficult, costly, and produce unforeseen consequences. This program will provide you with a framework for assessing the different trust alternatives and decision-tree for determining which is best for your client's specific circumstances.

- Role of special purpose trusts - Special Needs Trusts, credit shelter trusts, and insurance trusts
- Charitable giving alternatives - charitable remainder trusts and charitable lead trusts
- Issues related to the Generation Skipping Transfer Tax and portability
