  6. Client Advisory: Provide strategic tax and estate planning advice to high-net-worth individuals, families, and business owners. Communicate complex tax concepts and estate planning strategies in a clear and understandable manner. Address client inquiries and concerns in a timely and professional manner.




  7. Wealth Preservation: Advise clients on wealth preservation and asset protection strategies to safeguard assets from creditors, lawsuits, and other potential risks. Evaluate the use of trusts, LLCs, family limited partnerships, and other legal structures to achieve asset protection goals.




  8. Legal Research: Stay abreast of developments in tax law, trust law, and estate planning techniques. Conduct legal research and analysis to support estate planning strategies, tax planning initiatives, and client advisory services.

  6. Proficiency in tax research tools and software, such as CCH IntelliConnect or Bloomberg Tax.
  7. Strong analytical, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills.
