For Immediate Release - James H. Marlow, Gregory James Smith, Martha L. Ridgway and Dennis N. Whitmer to Present at the Hamilton Faatz and Waller, PC 2011 Annual Law Update.
Hamilton Faatz and Waller, PC announced it will hold its 2011 Annual Law Update.
This year has been a particularly busy year in the legal arena. The 2010 election occurred on the eve of the expiration of many federal estate and income tax provisions contained in the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001. Legislation enacted during the “lame duck session” extended and expanded many of these provisions – but only temporarily. The recent agreement to increase the federal debt ceiling in many ways only adds to the confusion. At the same time, the federal government has enacted major changes to the rules affecting health insurance, COBRA and Family Medical Leave, and the courts have delivered a number of contradictory opinions regarding these matters. We hope we will be able to clarify some of the confusion and provide a glimpse as to what the “Washington insiders” believe is going to happen. Finally, major changes in the law have impacted our clients who care for elderly and disabled family members and clients.
Please join us for a great breakfast and an opportunity to get all of your questions answered about these and any other topics which are on your mind. The 2011 Law Update will be provided on the following dates and at the following locations:
|
Tuesday, September 13, 2011 7:00am to 9:00am Location: Historic Hotel Boulderado 2115 Thirteenth Street Boulder, Colorado 80302 |
