Product Description

Documents are at the core of an Elder Law Practice, and new rules under the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 have ushered in a wave of drafting techniques designed to meet the stringent requirements that became effective August 1, 2006.  At the same time, staples of Elder Law planning such as the Special Needs Trust, Irrevocable Income Only Trust, Revocable Trust, Power of Attorney and others, have undergone subtle changes that require careful and up-to-date drafting.  This advanced course provides intermediate-to-advanced elder law attorneys with the latest drafting techniques and forms to enhance the breadth and efficiency of their practice.
