EVENT CALENDAR

Subscriber Drafting Webinars provide continued training on various aspects of using the InterActive Legal software, usually focusing on drafting particular documents or using certain drafting options. These webinars are free to ILS subscribers. They provide insight and training regarding specific documents and options available within the drafting systems. Subscribers will receive an email outlining the topic of each drafting webinar with instructions for registration.

In this subscriber drafting webinar, we will review the types of trusts that can be created for a surviving spouse, including trusts that qualify for the marital deduction (and therefore the step-up in basis at the survivor’s death), discretionary “sprinkle” trusts for the spouse and family, credit-shelter trusts, supplemental needs trusts, and trusts for retirement assets. We will cover how to trigger each of these trusts in the various practice systems, as well as the options for designing each type of trust within Wills, Revocable Trusts, and Joint Revocable Trusts. We’ll also briefly review inter vivos trusts for spouses (sometimes called “SLATs”), and how to draft them in your InterActive Legal program.
