Among the many considerations, such as heirs and trusts, there is also the legal ethics component.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEstate planning is of the utmost importance for farm families aiming to preserve their farms and land for the next generation,\u201d said David Claiborne, partner and founding member at <a href=\"https:\/\/sawtoothlaw.com\/\">Sawtooth Law Offices PLLC<\/a>. \u201cThe logistics and details of a plan are crucial, and they go hand-in-hand with the ethical standards that must be followed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Claiborne will present \u201cEthical Considerations in Estate Planning and Administration,\u201d at the Western Water, Agricultural, and Environmental Law Conference. Now in its third year, the conference will be held June 19-20 at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.peppermillreno.com\/\">Peppermill Resort Spa Casino<\/a> in Reno, Nevada. This year, the program is co-hosted by the <a href=\"https:\/\/nationalaglawcenter.org\/\">National Agricultural Law Center<\/a>, or NALC, and the National Association of State Departments of Agriculture Foundation, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasda.org\/nasda-foundation\/\">NASDA Foundation<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Claiborne will explore ethical considerations that arise when planning estates and trusts for married couples, multiple generations, and interrelated agribusinesses. He will also cover pitfalls to avoid when administering a trust or estate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe stakes are high when it comes to estate planning in agriculture,\u201d Claiborne said. \u201cWhether it be dealing with multi-generational families or a large agribusiness, ethical considerations are necessary to prevent disputes and trouble down the line.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The session will also discuss representation concerns related to business structures used in estate and trust planning.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe way estates are structured has long-term implications for families and businesses,\u201d said Claiborne. \u201cThe ethical considerations that we\u2019ll discuss in my session ensure that all parties involved in the estate are represented fairly, meeting legal requirements and intended outcomes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The conference will have a livestream option. It also features the opportunity for continuing education credit, as well as continuing education from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.asfmra.org\/home\">American Society of Farm Managers and Rural Appraisers<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur Western conference lineup covers numerous topics especially relevant to the Western region of the country, but these areas of agricultural law have significant influence for stakeholders nationwide as well,\u201d said NALC Director Harrison Pittman.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>To read the full news release, click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uaex.uada.edu\/media-resources\/news\/2025\/april\/04-02-2025-ark-nalc-western-estate-planning.aspx\">here<\/a>.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Drew ViguetNational Agricultural Law CenterU of A System Division of Agriculture April 4, 2025 Fast facts: Western session discusses ethics of estate planning Sawtooth Law Offices\u2019 David Claiborne is presenting the session Registration is online, livestream available FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. \u2014 According to data from the 2022 U.S. Census of Agriculture, family-owned farms make up [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12026],"tags":[13743,14720,14102,7908,6897,4856,12685,5306,10922,14050,3209],"dealstore":[],"offerexpiration":[],"class_list":["post-173036","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-agriculture","tag-agricultural","tag-agriculture","tag-center","tag-conference","tag-details","tag-estate","tag-law","tag-national","tag-planning","tag-session","tag-western"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.4 -
