The only live, interactive, online LLM in Elder Law and Estate Planning in the U.S., our program offers a unique opportunity for you to take your practice in a new direction or strengthen your expertise to advocate for elders and their families. In this 24-credit program, you will gain an extensive knowledge of and training in a number of diverse areas of law, including wills and trusts, estate and fiduciary administration, income taxation, federal wealth transfer taxation, and the use of various entities and products (particularly trusts and insurance products) in wealth planning and management. The program also develops expertise in social security law, Medicare, Medicaid, and other federal and state laws and regulations that directly affect these clients. You can enroll part-time or full-time in the fall or spring.

A pioneer in live, online Elder Law and Estate Planning education, Western New England University School of Law is accredited by the ABA. Taught live, not asynchronous, by leading experts, our program’s unique online delivery experience makes the LLM available to busy professionals nationwide who are looking to enhance their skills while studying part-time in just two to three years. Students have attended class from Alaska, Hawaii, while serving in the military in Germany, and while traveling in India! A full-time option is also available for recent graduates looking to strengthen their JDs with specialization in this growing practice area.

The program teaches the practical aspects of drafting estate plans, administering the settlement of estates, and representing elderly clients and families. In your final project, you will create a complex plan and develop your own set of planning documents. The in-depth knowledge gained from this experience will help you distinguish your practice and help you to inform and educate your clients on a very personal level.

Note: International students who have been admitted for Fall 2020 and are unable to travel to the US may defer their admission to Spring 2021.
