Use of pre- and post-nuptial agreements has become almost commonplace. The major challenge for estate planners is integrating those agreements into the estate and trust plans of the couple. This often impacts the interests of, and agreements, with former spouses, children from other marriages, and other parties in interest. Where the estate and trust implications of those pre- and post-nuptial agreements are overlooked, substantial and adverse financial, practical legal and tax problems can easily result. This program will provide you with a real world guide to challenges of incorporating pre- and post-nuptial agreements into estate and trust plans, major disclosure issues, planning related to joint and separate debts, taxes and expenses during the lifetimes of the parties, and practical tips to avoid disputes and legal challenges later.

- Estate and trust planning issues in pre- and post-nuptial agreements
- Disclosure issues and third party challenge issues
