Estate Planning Council

This is going to be the best and most important Heckerling review you will ever attend! There is so much going on during 2021, perhaps now more than ever before, and estate, income tax, wealth management, and all planning has become even more challenging for all professionals. We’ve seen a global pandemic, a Presidential election, a surprise outcome in Georgia, leading to a Democrat-controlled House and Senate, and immediately we started hearing about tax law changes. This includes lower exemptions, higher tax rates, no step up in basis, and more! Now we are hopefully exiting a global pandemic, we are seeing a raging US stock market, and we have yet to see how the several stimulus acts and payments will impact the US economy. For these reasons and more, planning for our clients has become even more complicated and challenging! Regardless of your role or profession, if you work with clients, it is now more critical than ever before for you to be aware of all of the potential planning opportunities, strategies, and techniques available to you and your clients.

The Heckerling Institute will have the best of the best in our profession, and we are very proud and excited to have two of them – Joy Matak, JD, LLM, and Glenn A Henkel, J.D., LL.M., CPA – giving us a review of the 2021 Heckerling Institute On Estate Planning. You will be getting the most current, up-to-date, and best information available to help you and your clients!
