About The Program:

Join us for the Elder and Disability Law Section's premier annual event. We've moved the program to a virtual event, and we aim to provide useful information on the practice of elder law, particularly in light of the pandemic. We'll have programs on Medicaid annuity planning, the PAS exam, building a successful elder law practice in challenging times, legal ethics (including ethics credits), and much more, as well as a discussion on how the pandemic has affected elder law, estate planning, guardianships, etc. and best practices moving forward.
