SLATs in a New Tax Landscape
About this program
This presentation will cover the history and implementation of Spousal Limited Access Trusts, best practices for these flexible estate planning vehicles, and their ongoing utility in light of the recent election and anticipated future estate and gift tax landscape. We will also discuss significant concerns that can arise when a divorce occurs, or when a spousal beneficiary dies. Back-end SLATs have developed as a partial solution to some of these concerns, although we will discuss the increased complexity involved in the interplay between state and federal law in this arena.
