Attorney Alpern focuses his practice on estate and elder law planning and believes strongly in continuing
education and felt it was important that he attend this event. "It is imperative for our clients, and their
families, that our office regularly attends these educational conferences to stay up to date on the constantly
changing laws," says Attorney Alpern "New laws and more effective planning options arise every year and the
Academy educational programs keep us on the cutting edge of those new techniques. We are excited to offer our
clients the new Legacy Wealth Planning techniques to enhance the legacy they leave their family and the impact
it will have on generations to come."
"The Academy has always had a focus on families passing on their financial wealth to future generations along
with their non-financial wealth, such as family values, traditions and heritage, which is often overlooked in
traditional planning," says Robert Armstrong, the co-founder of the American Academy. "Attorney Alpern regularly
presents on the Legacy Wealth Planning concepts and uncovers for families why most traditional estate plans fail
and reveals the latest strategies he has been providing local families ways in which they can fulfill their desire
to distribute assets, as well as their values and wisdom."
