Attorney Reviews

Comment: This was exactly the course I’d been looking for. It helped cement what I already knew, gave me insights into new applications, and alerted me to issues I might face in the future.

Comment: I found the course helpful and would recommend for those in their first 2 years of their T+E practice. It was good refresher/confirmation on some basic tax concepts and provided me with a more well-rounded understanding of some topics.

Comment: The Estate Planning Tax Series was outstanding! This is a great course for those familiar with estate, gift, and GST tax concepts, but who need either a refresher course or a detailed explanation of specific concepts. It is also a great primer for those who litigate in the trust arena and need an explanation of A/B trusts. The course explains the purpose and mechanics of various planning techniques such as credit shelter trusts and QTIP trusts. It also touches on income tax treatment of trusts as well as basis planning techniques. The presenters are top-notch, and the course materials alone are worth the tuition. Regardless of your skill or experience level, I’m certain you will learn something new that will benefit your practice. I highly recommend!

Comment: ILA’s Estate Planning Tax Series was the perfect introduction to higher level estate tax planning. I would recommend it for estate planners looking to handle larger estates and also for established planners that need a general refresh on their knowledge base.

Comment: InterLegal did a fabulous job of breaking down the seminar into seemingly simple sessions and providing an overall view of this very broad and complex subject. The topics, skillfully woven, touched upon almost all areas/types of trust making it very simple and easy to follow. Your flow of information/building on sessions was very logical and clear. I did miss, however, not having an opportunity of ‘on-the-spot’ questions. I hope InterLegal will now consider also conducting more focused, specialized, and in-depth training programs such as on 706’6, 709’s, SLATs etc.

Comment: Estate taxation has always been my weakest knowledge area. I have read books and articles and attended other trainings, but after attending the InterActive Legal Academy Estate Planning Tax Series, I feel comfortable that I finally have a solid foundation on estate taxation when I counsel my clients. I will go back and re-watch some of the episodes to further strengthen my comprehension, but this training proved to be relevant, understandable, and totally worth the investment.

Comment: Even though I have practiced in the estate planning area for years this was a worthwhile review.

Comment: Material presented very informative in down to earth manner. Enjoyed Academy.

Comment: I really enjoyed the Academy! The content and teaching styles were all excellent. Having different presenters each time and/or group presenters made it very interesting. Highly recommend this great course series!

Comment:The Interactive Legal Tax Planning Course exceeded my expectations. It was substantive and well presented. I would enthusiastically recommend it for experienced trusts and estates attorneys like myself, but also for any attorney who does estate planning work. In addition, as the former national director of wealth planning for one of the largest planning groups in the wealth management industry, I believe this course would be excellent for trust officers, wealth planners, and others who work with estate planning generally, and trusts, in particular. Terrific job by everyone at Interactive Legal.

Comment: The InterActive Legal Academy Estate Tax Planning Series is excellent. The Series provides very good coverage of the subject matter, both the technical rules and the practical application of those rules, in a well organized manner. The written materials complement the video presentations.

Comment: Both the materials (slides and detailed outlines) were well done and easy to understand. The various speakers about 7 or so, all knew their stuff. I have been in this field for decades and have an LL.M. in tax since 1983 and thought it was well done for the new person and the old timer like myself. And, not without great merit, the program cost was incredibly reasonable. Loved the sample language in the workshops. That by itself was worth the price of admission, A legitimate 5 out of 5

Comment: The Academy’s overview and coverage of planning techniques, especially the outlines are useful tools that I will refer to in future matters. Video instruction is outstanding. I would recommend this course to any firm, whether the firm’s planning matters are basic or advanced.

Comment: Although this course may be geared towards those attorneys new to tax planning, I recommend it for all attorneys practicing estate planning, even those with experience advising on tax planning matters. I have been an estate planner for 10+ years, and I found the course to be relevant, thorough, and helpful! The instructors are obviously knowledgeable and qualified, and the content and materials are of the highest quality. The website, technology, and back office support from Interactive Legal were all superb. I would recommend this course to any estate planning attorney!

Comment: I found the course to be excellent, really top-notch. All of the presenters were so good it was almost surprising. Do I want to become an InterActive subscriber? Yes!

Comment: InterActive Legal’s Estate Planning Tax Series was an excellent course.

Comment: I attended all 12 of the hour long sessions, and found them very well done, and relevant and helpful in my work. The presenters were very knowledgeable in the subject matter, and also excellent at presenting the material concerned. I sort of surprised myself, by watching all the presentations…..says something about the quality of the programs.
