Review and Rewrite Virtually Every
Business Buy-Sell Agreement!
(Or learn to do it yourself right the first time!)
Very often, attorneys will simply pull out a form and draft a Buy-Sell Agreement, without much experience in implementing them or a real understanding of the issues and nuances involved.
And far too often, that “boilerplate” Buy-Sell Agreement later becomes the business litigator’s dream paycheck! And often it constitutes malpractice.
Wouldn’t it be nice to know the traps of Buy-Sell Agreements, before you fall into them? And wouldn’t it be nice to have a practical checklist of the top mistakes found in Buy-Sell Agreements, so you can quickly review existing ones - - and gain the attention and trust of high net worth business owners?
Whether you’re an attorney, CPA, financial advisor or insurance agent, you now have an opportunity to listen and learn from one of the nation’s renowned estate planning attorneys, L. Paul Hood, Jr., JD, LL.M., as he shares some of his unique insights in this presentation entitled, “Is Your Buy-Sell Agreement Up to Snuff? - - Things to Remember in Buy-Sell Agreements”
