Estate Planning & Elder Law: August 2010
http://wjdennislaw.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 23, 2010. Don't Pass it by, Pick It Up. I, like most people I see walking along, with, or without four-legged friend attached, walk right around, through or by litter all the time. After walking with my dog around the same pond everyday for several weeks, I decided to try to pick-up a couple pieces of litter each day to see if it would make any difference in the appearance of that park. I know battling litter is nothing new. I know that there are people out there more eco-conscious tha...

Estate Planning & Elder Law: April 2012
http://wjdennislaw.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 5, 2012. Spring is also a time for organizing. We organize all our tax information for filing our income taxes. There's no better time to review your estate plan. You have much of the information right there in front of you. If you don't have an estate plan, or, if your estate plan is out-of-date (over 5 years old), you might consider establishing, or updating, your plan. William J. Dennis, Esq.

Estate Planning & Elder Law: October 2010
http://wjdennislaw.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 12, 2010. Estate Tax Exemption Update. Every now and then, an "expert" or "political analyst" will prognosticate on the future of the Federal Estate Tax, but there is no confidence in their writing. These prognosticators are always sure to include this caveat, or that disclaimer, because while they might think they have some insight, they really might as well be throwing darts at a donkey's hind-end.

Estate Planning & Elder Law: Estate Tax Update - Part 3/ Asset Protection
http://wjdennislaw.blogspot.com/2011/03/estate-tax-update-part-3-asset.html
Saturday, March 5, 2011. Estate Tax Update - Part 3/ Asset Protection. The reason I bring the subject of asset protection up in this discussion of the new estate tax law is that some people will tell you that now that there is a $5 million estate tax exemption and portability of that exemption, that 99% of the public will no longer need to utilize trusts. I find two problems with this thinking. 1 Protect assets from lawsuit against the surviving spouse. William J. Dennis, Esq. William J. Dennis, Esq.
