The Conference is specially crafted for attorneys, trust officers, accountants, financial institution executives, underwriters, insurance advisors, wealth management professionals, paralegals, fiduciary officers and other professionals in the trust and estate planning field. Speakers typically share "how to" techniques and forms used in their practices. Attendees are provided with practical syllabus materials in both print and electronic formats, including an annually-updated Trust and Estates Directory. CE units are available for lawyers, accountants, financial planners and fiduciaries. Legal specialization credits are available in Taxation Law and Estate Planning, Trust and Probate Law.
