Estate planning attorney John Ambrecht tapped to speak at two upcoming national webinars

Estate planning and tax attorney John Ambrecht will share his expertise at two upcoming national professional conferences that have moved online this year due to the COVID-19 outbreak.

Ambrecht, a senior partner at the estate planning and tax specialty law firm Ambrecht & Associates in Montecito, will provide guidance and insights on the latest in estate planning to attorneys across California and beyond during webinar events in April and June.

On April 23, Ambrecht will be among several nationally recognized experts participating in a live-stream Estate Planning Institute forum organized by the University of California Los Angeles and estate planning resource provider CEB. Now in its 42nd year, the institute – which is normally held in-person – offers California attorneys a dynamic environment to connect engage, and get informed about federal and state tax developments, elder issues, and California’s rules of professional conduct.

Later, on June 8, Ambrecht will take part in a webinar series offered by the New Jersey-based Attorneys for Family-Held Enterprises (AFHE), an independent, non-profit association of attorneys, practicing in the areas of corporate, litigation, taxation, and trusts and estates. AFHE is organizing the webinar in lieu of its 2020 annual conference and membership meeting, which was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. For the AFHE webinar, Ambrecht will join fellow expert estate planner Michael Whitty of Chicago in a talk titled “Family Business Governance Structures that Actually Fit Human Behavior to Enhance Successful Succession.” The webinar is open to AFHE members and other interested professionals. Ambrecht has more than 30 years of estate and tax planning experience.

A fellow of the American College of Trust and Estate Counsel, as well as a Certified Specialist in Estate Planning, Trust & Probate Law through the State Bar of California, Ambrecht provides sophisticated and complex estate and tax planning for family business succession planning, including developing appropriate transitional structures. His conflict resolution techniques help families protect wealth while minimizing intergenerational discord. His practice tackles challenging planning issues that arise from a client’s ties to multiple jurisdictions, both nationally and internationally, in trusts and estate planning, asset protection, and tax controversies.
