Specifically, the presenter will discuss the importance of conveying the client’s goals for the plan in a clear and concise manner in the governing documents, which should ideally serve as a roadmap for the fiduciary and advisors responsible for implementing the plan.  With the use of case studies, this presentation will discuss common ways in which an estate plan could be negligently maintained, explain the potential consequences of that negligence, and suggest options for simplifying an estate plan’s maintenance to avoid those missteps altogether.  This presentation will also address ways of building flexibility into an estate plan to accommodate a fiduciary’s pursuit of non-judicial corrective measures if the suggested preventative measures are not adopted and a plan is ultimately improperly maintained.  Laurel Stephenson is a founding Member of Davis Stephenson, PLLC. She specializes in estate planning for high net worth individuals and multiâgenerational families.
