So much time has passed since we were able to meet live at the Heckerling conference with both current subscribers and soon-to-be subscribers, and in that time, InterActive Legal has added many new options, documents, and content. As we convene virtually once more, we invite you to spend your Wednesday lunch hour with our in-house estate planning and elder law attorneys to discuss new offerings in our drafting systems. Our team of lawyers, who work exclusively with our program and subscribers, will highlight new features designed to create more robust estate planning documents as well as improve drafting efficiency.

Elizabeth (“Beth”) Boehmcke graduated cum laude from the University of Michigan Law School in 1993.
