-- Buy-Sell Planning (especially entity buy-sells in light of the Connelly 8th Circuit decision) – should owners with entity buy-sells funded with life insurance consider changing to separate LLC/trusts or cross-purchase arrangements?  Should we re-evaluate reported basis for any recent estates that may have participated in such arrangements? 45 min
