Benefits
Many employers offer their employees the opportunity to work from home either on a regular or temporary basis. While the flexibility of a telecommuting arrangement can benefit both the employer and the employee, allowing a nonexempt employee to work at home can lead to a minefield of wage and hour issues that an employer must carefully navigate to avoid potential liability. As telecommuting has become more prevalent, there have been a number of lawsuits filed by telecommuting employees (often as class actions) claiming violation of various state and federal wage and hour laws, suggesting a new trend in wage and hour litigation. All employers who currently have nonexempt telecommuting employees or are considering allowing nonexempt employees to telecommute should make sure they are aware of the legal landscape affecting such employees and take steps to comply with all applicable legal requirements.

| Seminar: | Strategies Short of Foreclosure: Introduction to Real Estate Short Sales |
| Date: | 2008-04-16 |
| Price: | 249.00, USD |
| Audience: | Attorneys, presidents, vice presidents, loan officers, loan department personnel, branch managers, credit and collections managers, real estate professionals, controllers, accountants and auditors |
| Benefits: | Record numbers of foreclosures have radically changed the residential real estate market in the last year and affected all aspects of the practice of residential real estate law, real estate closings, lending and sales. Whether your real estate market has experienced a bubble burst or merely a fizz, your practice has been affected by slowing markets, the subprime meltdown and the record number of foreclosures. In response, mortgage lenders are increasingly entering into negotiated settlements to accept less money than is owed on a mortgage as an alternative to foreclosure. While the short sale is not a new concept, it has seen increased importance as a means of mitigating a lender’s losses from the rapidly rising tide of foreclosures. This teleconference will enable you to understand the important role short sales have in your business and equip you to better assist your clients with this foreclosure alternative. The teleconference will also provide step-by-step instructions on how to negotiate short sales successfully and address important ethical and professional considerations.

| Teleconference: | Tax and Estate Planning for Clients Relocating to Florida |
| Date: | 2008-04-08 |
| Price: | 199.00, USD |
| Audience: | Attorneys, accountants, CPAs, business owners and managers, presidents, vice presidents, financial and estate planners, insurance professionals, bankers and trust officers |
| Benefits: | This timely discussion will highlight the legal and tax impact of a client relocating to Florida. Certainly the appeal of Florida’s great weather can be too much to resist for some, but the move has consequences. Tax laws in Florida are generally much more favorable than the laws of the state the client is departing. Similarly, the laws impacting asset protection planning are generally more protective of the client’s assets. In addition, there are some unique laws concerning a person’s homestead residence both from a tax perspective and a property rights perspective of which the out of state practitioner must be aware. Lastly, Florida has adopted a fairly rigid view of the unlicensed practice of law which will impact the out of state practitioner who continues to advise clients who have moved to Florida.
