Jeff Scroggin will present on
“What Dead Celebrities Can Teach Us About Estate Planning”
It is intriguing how estate planning mistakes are often replicated and exaggerated in celebrity estates. This presentation discusses the mistakes in the estate planning of a number of celebrities and provides practical insights on how these mistakes illustrate ways that you can improve your average client’s estate planning. A few examples:
-
Robin Williams and conflicts over personal property
-
Chris Benoit, intestacy and how order of death matters
-
Leona Helmsley and ruling from the grave with a CRUT
-
Sumner Redstone and properly planning for incapacity
-
Michael Jackson and the taxable value of a post-death Persona
-
Prince and the potential inheritance of a child he never knew
