Starting Out Smart
What you need to know that law schools and firms don't teach you...
June 20, 2001

Starting out and little or no income, when many law students finally realize their dream and start earning a lot of money, they want it all a new car, upscale condo, nice clothes, dinners out. What they don’t realize and what law schools and firms aren’t teaching is what to do with that paycheck. Instead of rushing out to spend it, they need to devise a plan to pay off their credit cards and student loans, save up a down payment, and invest in their future. Here’s a wealth managment primer.



Tax Relief Act Advisory
Key provisions and what they mean to you - June 18, 2001
June 18, 2001

Congress recently passed, and the President has signed into law, the Tax Relief Act. We want to alert you to those changes that will affect income taxation and estate plan over the next decade. Most newspaper accounts have overstated the impact of some of the changes, such as the estate tax "repeal", in a manner that is misleading to the public. Here are highlights some of the important provisions and a perspective from which to view them.



Estate and Gift Tax Changes
June 6, 2001

As many of you have read in the newspapers, Congress has passed, and President Bush is expected to sign, legislation which makes significant changes in the estate and gift tax provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. These changes will affect the estate plans of most of our clients over the next decade. The purpose of this memorandum is to alert you to these changes so that they ultimately can be reviewed in conjunction with your own estate plan.
