TAX2320. Multi-Disciplinary Teaming in Tax Advisory Services

This session will use a multi-disciplinary panel approach to discuss the importance and benefits of a high-level team approach when advising clients on issues such as estate and trust planning, retirement planning, cash planning and various other tax and financial related matters. We will look at who should be at the table, responsibilities and accountability of each team member, the actual planning process and the use of engagement letters in advisory engagements.
