In March, 2010, partners Jean Kohler and Geniveve Ruskus presented to the Santa Clara County Bar on the topic of cross-over issues between family law and estate planning.  The attorneys at Lakin Spears have a unique perspective on this area given the depth of our family law and estate planning/probate practice areas.  The March presentation, which overviewed pre- and postmarital agreements, as well as issues of death in a pending divorce, was well received.  Jean and Geniveve plan to put on a similar program in June for the Silicon Valley Bar Association.
