Sign Up Now: Two Great Webinars & A Fantastic Resource

Hello Members!

Just a few items for you today. It's quick, so I hope you will give this info a look.

Great webinar. Our Legal Education Department has put together a two-part webinar that we are calling A Dirt Lawyer's Guide to Probate Essentials. It's airing Tuesday, August 6 at noon and Tuesday, August 13 at noon. Legal Education Attorney Kara Scott will be leading the presentation and I have been told that "it's a winner!" If you need to brush up on your knowledge of probate essentials, you need to register for BOTH of these sessions. Here's a link to register: https://www.thefund.com/shop/education/webinars/live/member/a-dirt-lawyers-guide-to-probate-essentials

Another good webinar - on Rules of Civil Procedure. Many of you handle litigation matters…..or have partners that do. This information is a "must read" for both you and those colleagues. The Florida Rules of Civil Procedure are about to get the most substantive overhaul in a generation. Attorneys that litigate must be ready and must understand what these amendments will do and how they will impact your cases, including the ones you have pending right now. Do not be unprepared when these amendments take effect. The courts will be ready on January 1, 2025, and to make sure your answer to the judge is not “I didn’t know,” you need to attend this program sponsored by the Real Property, Probate and Trust Law Section of The Florida Bar. https://tfb.inreachce.com/Details/Information/acc2d60c-178b-44f5-bc02-c1687e8c56cf

Fund Real Estate Forum. I continue to sing the praises of our real estate forum as a great resource for all Fund Members. Our Forum is an old-fashioned list serve where Members can post questions they are facing in their practices about a myriad of topics (you never know what people will bring up!) and ask for feedback and advice from each other. Title cure period, Positive Pay, mortgages recorded without legal descriptions, evictions, Russian-speaking RON, cell phone tower issues….these are all topics in a recent week on the Forum.  TONS of knowledge about Florida real estate law is shared every day. Fund Members are so generous with their time and expertise, and the Forum is one of the best ways to see that in action. It's free for Fund Members, so join up by clicking this link: https://www.thefund.com/re-attorneys-forum. Hope to see you soon on the Forum!

That's all for this week. Let me know how we can help you.
