Bruce Givner is our Latest Featured Speaker!
Our latest featured speaker is Bruce Givner of KFB Rice LLP!
Bruce is speaking at our upcoming Understanding the Corporate Transparency Act and Helping your Clients Comply program on November 14, 2024. The Corporate Transparency Act (the “CTA”) went into effect on January 1, 2024. It requires “reporting companies” in the United States to disclose information regarding its beneficial owners, i.e., the individuals who own or control a company, to the Treasury Department’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCEN”). Join attorneys specializing in the CTA for a comprehensive discussion covering the act’s implications, impacted entities, filing the Beneficial Ownership Information Report (BOIR), key deadlines, penalties, and related congressional, judicial, and state matters. Attend this program to navigate these critical issues and safeguard your clients’ interests.
Bruce will be co-teaching “History of CTA, Entities Impacted & Exempt Entities” with Vince Farhat and Eileen Duffy Robinett, and “Beneficial Ownership Information Report (BOIR): Contents, Timing, Gathering Information & Access” with Vince Farhat. You can see the detailed agenda for his topics and the rest of the program, and sign up to watch it live or purchase OnDemand Streaming or a recorded package download here.
Bruce will also be teaching at our Trust and Estate Planning 101: The Nuts and Bolts (CA) [Two-Part Webinar] program in March 2025. If you are just getting going with your estate planning practice, or need a refresher on various aspects of estate planning, this comprehensive estate planning program is for you.
