After my father’s passing, I was overwhelmed by the complexity of his estate, which included a family business, out-of-state property, and significant investment accounts. The tax implications seemed daunting. A colleague recommended Susan Carlson, noting her decades of specialization. From our first meeting, her depth of knowledge was immediately apparent. She didn’t just execute documents; she provided a comprehensive strategy that considered long-term tax consequences for our entire family. Her 35+ years focused on tax planning, backed by her LL.M. in Taxation, were invaluable. We navigated IRS filings, business succession, and trust administration seamlessly. Her recent recognition as 'Lawyer of the Year' in Tax Law is no surprise to anyone who has worked with her. Susan is meticulous, patient in explaining intricate details, and ultimately saved our family a substantial amount in potential liabilities. Her counsel was worth every penny. I cannot recommend her highly enough for anyone facing sophisticated estate or tax matters.
