Same-sex married couples are now able to take advantage of many of the benefits previously available only to heterosexual married couples. In light of this significant update and the complexities and shifting tax landscape for the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) community, it is essential to work with professionals who are experienced and up-to-date on the latest laws and regulations. Same-sex couples should review their financial and tax planning with professionals who are sensitive to the issues facing the LGBT community and who keep abreast of state specific details as they develop.

Our professionals understand your financial and tax needs, help structure your financial life, and ensure you are taking advantage of constantly changing laws.
