Income Tax Planning and Tax Return Preparation
Taxes are a major consideration in the creation and retention of your wealth.
Simply stated, wealth accumulates faster for those with a clear understanding that there are generally two opportunities to reduce the tax impact of any transaction or business activity. The first is before it occurs and the second is when it is reported. We’re here to help our clients take full advantage of both.
Income Tax Planning
Helping clients take into account the impact of taxes as they plan their activities throughout the year.
This includes making income tax projections each quarter and calculating estimated federal and state tax payments. We also engage in significant year-end planning, guiding clients in effective methods of tax deferral, tax reduction, and timing capital transactions for best income tax results. We play a major role in other transactions our clients engage in, advising them of the tax consequences and planning with them to achieve the best result, both from a tax standpoint and a non-tax standpoint.
Income Tax Return Preparation
Preparing income tax returns for high net-worth clients.
With a detailed understanding of the income tax laws (and transfer tax laws), we are experienced in the complexities that present themselves in the tax matters of wealthy clients.
