Retirement Benefits Planning

The world of Estate Planning is changing, and attorneys and planners alike are looking to realign their practice for a newer audience. Natalie Choate, Estate Planning’s leading expert on retirement benefits planning, asked us to do just that with her groundbreaking eBook, “Life and Death Planning for Retirement Benefits“.

Together with InterActive Legal, we created a site, that promotes this work to a new audience. RetirementBenefitsPlanning.us is a modern platform from which to view this cornerstone publication of estate, tax, and retirement benefits planning.

Updated and in sync with the 8th edition of the book, in 2018, Retirement Benefits Planning is the state of the art for estate planning, featuring frequent updates, full support for mobile devices, increased security, and an array of tools to help you deliver to your clients. Most importantly, the site is easy to navigate and access from your desktop and tablet.

Natalie Choate’s book is a crucial reference manual for the Estate Planning and Tax Planning industries, important to countless professionals in the field. We enabled the material to be presented online, accessed by subscription. This gives reader the ability to search for specific topics and then links to abundant resources and case materials.

Why was this update important?

Retirement Benefits Planning was upgraded from Flash to HTML5, allowing it to operate smoothly and efficiently on mobile devices such as tablets, phones, and Apple Products. Flash has become increasingly unsecure and needs to be replaced as a web technology. This update provides the security and modernity Natalie’s site needed to function in the present day and beyond.
