The CTEP™ Program

Overview

Estate planning is a broad practice area encompassing personal, family and financial issues related to control and transfer of property and to end-of life decision making. It includes helping clients address life planning and management of their property to satisfy their personal needs and the needs of their family or business —during their lives, during a period of disability, and after death. Clients at all income levels and with all kinds of families have estate planning needs. Estate planning varies greatly depending on each client’s individual requirements.
The estate planner will focus on the client’s overall estate-planning objectives and how best to accomplish them with wills, trusts, powers of attorney, long-term health care, end of life care, life insurance and other planning vehicles. Those representing high net-worth individuals or business owners must have in-depth knowledge of tax and business law, since they may use sophisticated planning vehicles such as specialized trusts, family-limited partnerships, limited liability companies, and private charitable foundations to facilitate succession planning and reduce potential taxation.
Estate planners, no matter who their clients are, must have good people skills, enjoy attention to detail, and a have a sophisticated understanding of family dynamics and how those dynamics affect legal outcomes.
