June 23, 2026

Whether you’ve made aliyah, are planning to, own property or even just a bank account in Israel, or have children or grandchildren living there, your estate plan likely doesn’t work the way you think it does. US wills and trusts often complicate Israeli probate, and health care directives and powers of attorney are not easily accepted across borders.

Join Israeli attorney Miriam Shatsky for a practical conversation about what Americans with connections to Israel actually need in place. We’ll cover wills and estate planning under Israeli law, enduring powers of attorney, advance medical directives, and the most common and costly mistakes dual-country families make. Miriam is based in Ra’anana and works exclusively with English-speaking olim and their families.

Bring your questions. There will be time for live Q&A.
