Money Magazine Recognizes American Academy
SAN DIEGO, California – December 22, 2008 - In the January 2009 issue of Money Magazine, Walecia Konrad’s article entitled “Keep It In The Family” focuses on making sure the wealth families work so hard to accumulate will go to the people they love. The article includes a useful estate planning checklist and valuable tips for putting together a proper estate plan that will safeguard those hard-earned assets from estate taxes, lawsuits and probate. It recommends the American Academy of Estate Planning Attorneys as a source to find a qualified estate planning attorney to tailor a plan for your situation and address your state rules. This is the fourth time Money Magazine has recommended finding a qualified estate planning attorney with the American Academy of Estate Planning Attorneys in the last 16 issues.
The Academy is a national organization dedicated to promoting excellence in estate planning by providing its exclusive membership of attorneys with up-to-date research on estate and tax planning, educational materials, and other important resources to empower them to provide superior estate planning services. The Academy expects members to have at least 36 hours of legal education each year specifically in estate, tax, probate and/or elder law subjects. To ensure this goal is met, the Academy provides over 40 hours of continuing legal education each year. The Academy has been recognized as a consumer legal source by Money Magazine and Suze Orman in her book, 9 Steps to Financial Freedom.

“The marketing is ingenious. Stick with the call-to-action marketing at least until you are very well established in the community. It is tried and true and will give you a steady flow of clients. The same is true of the seminar presentation. Whenever another attorney tells me he or she is thinking about doing seminars, I encourage them to do it because I know they will spend a lot of money to get a few people into a seminar where they will give a disjointed, lengthy seminar all the while talking over the heads of the attendees. They will not quote fees or come to a proper close and will realize few if any clients as a result. My results are the complete opposite.
The documents are complete and without rival. The education is superb as is the customer service, collegiality and professionalism.”
