New Jersey has recently become one of a handful of states to adopt new pay transparency requirements. On Nov. 18, 2024, Gov. Phil Murphy signed into law the Pay Transparency Act—a new mandate requiring transparency in employment listings that will take effect on June 1, 2025. The act requires employers to include in job postings a range of salary or wages along with a description of the benefits that applicants can expect to receive within the first 12 months of employment. The act applies to job postings for both promotional opportunities and new employment listings.

The use of this software will result in civil lawsuits being filed against parents and other supervisors of the children for negligence, defamation and other privacy torts.

With the potential Jan. 1, 2026, sunset of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA) and the reduction of the federal estate and gift tax exemption to $5 million, indexed for inflation (estimated to be approximately $7.2 million), advisers should consider whether grantor retained annuity trusts (GRATs), charitable lead trusts (CLTs), intra-family loans, and sales to intentionally defective grantor trusts (IDGTs) should be re-evaluated and re-considered for high net-worth families.
