Trust and Estate Planning for Collectibles, Art and Other Unusual Assets (Live Replay from September 29, 2021)

This item is expired.


Art, collectibles, cars, jewelry and other unique assets, perhaps handed down for generations in a family, may form a large share a client's estate. Unlike more traditional assets, these non-traditional assets pose special challenges for planners.

There are issues of valuation – how do you value a painting, even by a well-known artist? – and liquidity. Though very valuable, these objects do not have liquid markets. There are also many issues surrounding the lifetime or post-mortem transfer of control of these assets, tax issues, and, in some instances, intellectual property issues.

These and many other issues can be fascinating but also frustrating.

This program provides a practical guide to trust and estate planning for art, collectibles, jewelry, and other unique assets.
