When a client with a disabled family member walks into your office, you need more than a formbook; you need drafting strategies that work in the real world. This hands-on program equips estate planning attorneys with essential techniques for drafting third-party special needs trusts that protect public benefits, withstand government scrutiny, and provide trustees with the guidance they need to administer the trust effectively. You will learn the key provisions that must be included, the dangerous language that must be avoided, and the practical considerations that separate competent drafting from malpractice risks. Topics include distribution standards that preserve eligibility, trustee powers and limitations, termination provisions, and integrating special needs trusts into comprehensive estate plans. Gain confidence in identifying when these trusts are appropriate, counseling clients on their options, and drafting documents that serve families for years to come.
