Topic: Now That the Client has Died - What is the Tax Professional's Role in Settling the Clients Estate or Trust

As tax professionals we spend a lot of time determining just how certain taxes are and how to assist our clients in navigating the treacherous waters of the US tax code. This class will explore the first half of Benjamin Franklin’s statement, that death is the other certain factor. Most of us have dealt with, and all of us will deal with the death of a loved one or of a client. As a tax professional, there are certain responsibilities that must be undertaken, ethically, to assist the client’s survivors to settle the affairs of a deceased client. This class will help you understand what should be done and what must be done as a tax professional and the boundaries within which you must work to carry out your ethical obligation to your clients and their survivors. This class will start with the basics and quickly move into intermediate details involving the tax professional’s responsibilities regarding trust administration and estate settlement.
