The Taxation Section of the State Bar of Michigan will present “The Michigan General Durable Power of Attorney Webinar” on Friday, November 10, from noon to 1 p.m. via Zoom.
A GDPA is an essential, personal legal document. Issues covered in this webinar include the following:
• In the wake of alleged, recent, large-scale embezzlements perpetrated by counsel, this webinar will consider GDPAs in light of Michigan fiduciary law, including reliance upon GDPAs by banks and other third parties.
• In light of recent pronouncements by the Internal Revenue Service, the webinar will receive the use of GDPAs in Federal tax practice.
• The webinar will consider GDPAs in light of the looming Uniform Power of Appointment Act.
Webinar attendees will be provided a monograph of legal authorities, as well as a template GDPA.
