Many states have modified their statutes to accommodate this trend either by eliminating the rule against perpetuities or by substantially increasing the period during which a party may hold property in trust. An increased desire to achieve asset protection through the use of trusts may also be responsible for the increased use of long-duration irrevocable trusts. Yet drafting a long-term irrevocable trust is a challenging undertaking for the draftsperson. During the continuation of the trust, the law, the circumstances of the trust beneficiaries, or both may change in a way that was not foreseen or considered when drafted. These changes might render the trust’s terms more adverse, inefficient, or disadvantageous to the beneficiaries than other terms would be. This may lead trustees and beneficiaries to wish to modify the terms of an existing irrevocable trust.\n \n \n \nMaking changes to an irrevocable trust is not without risk. Reformation to correct errors may be opposed or ultimately denied. Modifications requiring beneficiary consent may result in inadvertent gift tax and generation-skipping transfer tax consequences. And a fiduciary who engages in a decanting may be subject to an action for breach of trust. Understanding both the opportunities and the tax consequences of changing the terms of an otherwise irrevocable trust is critical to effective use of the techniques. This presentation will review the development of the law on changing irrevocable trusts and its application and the ways to use the available approaches effectively.\n \n \n \nADMIN 693449790v1\n       \nEvent Details     \nDate:\n \nThurs., April 18, 2024\n \n \n \nTimes:\n \n3:45 PM - Registration\n \n4:00 PM - Program\n \n5:30 PM - Netowrking Happy Hour\n \n6:30 PM - Bar Closes\n \n7:30 PM - Showtime!\n \n \n \nCost:\n \nMembers - $25.00\n \nNon-Member - $75.00\n \nMuch Ado Ticket - $50.00\n     \nLocation:\n \nCincinnati Shakespeare Company\n \n1195 Elm Street\n \nCincinnati, OH 45202\n \n \n \nDeadline to Register:\n \nMONDAY, APRIL 15th\n \nNote: refunds will not be given for cancellations received after the registration deadline.\n     \nAPPROVED CEU Credits*\n \n \n \nCFP\n CPA\n KY Legal\n OH Insurance\n   \nPending CEU Credits\n \n \n \nOH Legal\n   \n*Certificate of attendance available upon request if we do not file a credit you need.\n     \nThank you to Presenting Sponsor!\n    [](https://bartlett1898.com/)    \nThank you to Hospitality Sponsor!\n        \nï»¿\n \nï»¿2023-2024 Season Sponsor\n \nWe are proud to welcome the\n \nï»¿Greater Cincinnati Foundation back as our season sponsor!\n    [](https://www.gcfdn.org/)       \nAbout the Speaker\n     \nDiana S.C.
