DESCRIPTION

The interdisciplinary nature of wills and estates is an appealing aspect of the practice - to draft a will you have to understand the law, to administer an estate you must know the fundamentals of creditor rights, and to navigate estate litigation, familiarity with real estate, limitations, intellectual property, civil procedure and bankruptcy is a must. Extend your knowledge of the essentials in those legal disciplines orbiting around the periphery of the estates world. Gain practical strategies for managing the intersection between your wills and estate practice and the areas of real estate, bankruptcy and insolvency, intellectual property and civil litigation.
