Principal Jordan Weitberg will speak on the New Jersey Uniform Trust Code at the New Jersey Institute for Continuing Legal Education’s (NJICLE’s) seminar on The Uniform Trust Code at the Hyatt in Morristown, NJ. The program is presented in cooperation with the NJSBA Real Property Trust & Estate Law Section.
The UTC is a codification of rules related to trust administration and planning that are based on a model code originally proposed by National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws which goes into effect in New Jersey on July 17, 2016. Jordan was a member of a New Jersey committee of experienced trusts and estates lawyers who spent hundreds of hours fashioning a version of the UTC for New Jersey purposes that is modeled after the uniform law and followed, to the extent possible, New Jersey’s law.
