Program Description

In this economy, many family law attorneys need to know how to approach the decline in market values in real estate, businesses, and retirement. This program will address the tax impact of market losses and the new rules relating to foreclosed properties. It will also suggest ideas for maximizing returns, minimizing losses, and dividing a negative marital estate.
