About the Program

Donald J. Trump’s historic victory in the 2016 U.S. Presidential election sent shock waves throughout the country, and will undoubtedly continue to have major ramifications for all Americans during his tenure as President. This is particularly true in the tax arena, where he and congressional Republicans have proposed dramatic, sweeping changes. These changes could fundamentally alter the practices estate planners and our clients everywhere and for years to come, particularly in the estate planning and valuation areas.
