The lifetime protection of personal assets, such as homes and retirement plans, is a key concern of many dentists.

This seminar will highlight available statutory exemptions, traditional planning techniques and advanced estate planning instruments as a means by which to legitimately protect assets from future potential creditors.

Few decisions in your life will have as large of an impact as your practice transition, both qualitatively and quantitatively. Given this, whether buying or selling a practice, it is never a good idea to put the cart before the horse and pursue a transition before appropriately planning. Further, many transition plans suffer, and sometimes fall apart, due to an inability or unwillingness to understand the other party’s requests, concerns and/or demands. This webinar will discuss, from both a buyer and a seller’s point-of-view, issues that need to be addressed and decisions that need to be made prior to transitioning into the next phase of your career. Explore real world examples of conflict between buyer and seller and what you can do to prepare for, and avoid, such issues.
