Retiring boomers get help

As the baby boomer population matures, more attorneys will be thinking about retirement and the possible sale of the current law firm where they practice. Other attorneys may be considering a change from their present position but need help in orchestrating a move.

Topics include ethical considerations when withdrawing from a law firm; notice requirements; how to know what you are buying or selling; do's and don'ts for structuring the purchase payments; and tax-wise ways of funding a withdrawal, sale or retirement.

This seminar features practical presentations and panel discussions by Thomas J. Bonasera, Buckingham Doolittle & Burroughs, who successfully withdrew from a firm last year; Richard D. Bringardner, Wiles Boyle Burkholder & Bringardner; and Elbert R. Nester Advisors Pension Services. This course will be especially helpful to small and mid-size law firms and their accounting and financial advisors, as well as attorneys contemplating a change.
