If You Die, Will Your Digital Assets Die With You?
May 16, 2013
CLE - Live Webcast
USA
Description
Consider this frightening scenario: a widow finds her credit score tanking because her deceased husband, who paid everything online, left her without any log-in information. Because he had gone paperless, she has no clue when bills are even due.
As lawyers, we need to consider how digital assets affect our clients as more and more of our clients manage their personal affairs on the web. Not only do wills and trust attorneys need to think about them, so do family lawyers because divorces present a unique context in which digital assets play a key role.
Topics include:
-definition of digital assets
-real life examples of the problems caused by the failure to plan for the disposition of digital assets
-strategic language that trust and estate attorneys might employ
-issues in family law dealing with digital assets
-state digital assets laws (pending and passed)
-future of digital assets in the legal system
