For 25 years, the ISBA Agricultural Law Section has been providing top-notch and timely continuing legal education seminars for Illinois attorneys – and it’s that time again. Join us Feb. 1, 2019 in Bloomington for this full-day seminar that updates you on a number of important agricultural law issues. Learn how agriculture law affects other practice areas, including: real estate, trusts and estates, business advice, general practice, and state/federal tax. Attorneys with intermediate practice experience who attend this seminar will better understand: how the past year’s federal estate tax cases have impacted the agricultural community; how the 2018 federal and state income tax changes are affecting agricultural producers; which federal and state income tax changes to be concerned about in 2019; how your clients might be affected by the Clean Water Act and Endangered Species Act; the record-keeping requirements for agents, trustees, executors, and other fiduciary agents; how to negotiate and draft solar array options and easement agreements; and how to appeal an adverse wetlands determination.

The program closes with a comprehensive look at mental health and addiction in the legal profession, including how the Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission addresses these issues and the resources available to attorneys in need.

The program is presented by the ISBA Agricultural Law Section. It qualifies for 6.50 hours MCLE credit, including 1.0 hour Mental Health and Substance Abuse Professional Responsibility MCLE credit (subject to approval).
