Topics include: 1) the use of state law exemptions; 2) joint ownership of property; 3) spousal gifting; 4) use of insurance; 5) use of annuities; 6) planning through corporations, family limited partnerships and family limited liability companies; 7) limited partnership associations, limited liability limited partners and other creatures of statute; 8) domestic trust planning; 9) change of domicile; and 10) cautions concerning business practices.
