Philadelphia to Host Year End Estate and Income Tax Planning Seminar

Andersen will host Protecting Your World: Tax Planning in the Current Environment, an informative Private Client Services Panel to discuss income, estate, gift and generation-skipping transfer tax issues. The event takes place October 28, 2015 from 4:00 PM to 7:30 PM in the Philadelphia Office.

It's not too late to start strategizing now to keep next year's tax bill low. Those with personal tax questions and their advisors will have the opportunity to ask them during our informal panel with experts from our New York Metro and U.S. National Tax Offices.

In addition to answering your questions, Jim Hogan, Joseph P. Toce, Jr. and Carl Fiore will share their unique perspectives on issues relating to estate and income tax planning as well as special insights into proposed legislation that could impact individuals. The event will be moderated by Jim O’Brien.
