What inspires you about tax law?
When most people think of taxes, they think of the amount of money that comes out of their paycheck, or the refund or tax bill they get each year during tax time.
The truth is that taxation is far bigger than that. Taxes are everywhere. Taxation touches every type of legal matter. When you do estate planning, for instance, you have to plan for death taxes. When you receive a tort settlement, you need to decide if it is taxable or not. If you get divorced, taxes and child tax credits and the like need to be planned for. What type of business entity you choose, such as a corporation or a partnership, greatly affects the amount and how you pay taxes. The list goes on.
There are somewhere around 100 different taxes that we pay each year. Taxes touch everything we do in life, and even determine certain actions and behaviors we take. We provide tax incentives for behaviors that we like, and we heavily tax items or services that we want to inhibit. If you want to know what the government approves of or disapproves of, it starts with the tax code.
You really can’t do anything in life without it being taxed. From sales tax, to property tax, to income tax, to taxes and fees you pay on everyday items like a driver’s license, to city taxes, county taxes, state taxes, etc. Taxes are everywhere. I am fortunate that, with my skills and education, I can assist people with maximizing their tax situation, and I can help those that have potentially found themselves in trouble with one of the many tax authorities out there.
