FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What exactly is The Residuary?
The Residuary is a weekly intelligence brief for trust and estate attorneys and wealth advisors. Each week, we distill the most important federal and state developments, PLRs, case law, and planning strategies into a concise, actionable brief — so you stay current without spending hours on research.
Who is this written for?
The Residuary is written for trust and estate attorneys, fiduciary officers, wealth advisors, and family office professionals who advise UHNW clients. If your practice touches estate planning, trust administration, or intergenerational wealth transfer, this is built for you.
What topics does it cover?
Federal estate and gift tax developments, IRS rulings and PLRs, GST planning, trust siting and modification, fiduciary litigation, state-level legislative updates, and emerging strategies from ACTEC, Heckerling, and leading practitioners.
How is this different from other legal newsletters?
Most legal newsletters are either too broad or too academic. The Residuary is laser-focused on the UHNW practice and written for practitioners, not professors. Every item is selected for its direct relevance to client advisory work — no filler, no fluff.
What does the subscription include?
Full access to every weekly issue, complete archives, and any supplemental briefings we publish. One flat annual rate — $295/year — with no tiers or upsells.
Is there a free trial or guarantee?
Yes. We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee — no questions asked. If The Residuary isn't the most useful publication in your weekly reading stack, we'll refund you in full.
