About This Course

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 introduced sweeping changes to personal, business and estate tax rules. The most comprehensive tax change since 1986, it was also created and passed faster than any other in history. This CLE course will explain how the act impacts almost every aspect of planning including asset protection, charitable giving, entity choice, itemized giving, trust income tax planning and the structure of trusts including grantor vs. non-grantor, ING, SLAT’s, DAPT’s, etc. New provisions, planning alterations and individual tax planning and the transfer of tax planning will all be discussed.
