Cornered: Essential Caselaw and Legislative Updates for Elder Law Attorneys

Staying on top of recent decisions and legislation impacting estate planning, guardianships, and more is essential for elder law attorneys who advise clients and their families on wide-ranging matters. In Illinois, important 2025 developments include the One Big Beautiful Bill, limits to facility liability for negligence, attorney duties for mental capacity determinations, receipt of assets by minor family members, and more. Linda Strohschein and Paula Willuweit of Strohschein Law Group in St. Charles are presenting this year's caselaw and legislative update at the IICLE® Elder Law Short Course, which is at the Chicago Marriott Southwest and via live webcast on September 18 - 19, 2025. The annual reception hosted by the Illinois Chapter of the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys (NAELA-IL) is open to all in-person attendees at no additional cost.
