Description:
Few issues can be as perplexing or hazardous to one’s reputation and
career as those involving ethics. This panel will discuss the sources of
ethical rules applicable to tax practitioners, and will consider some
of the challenges and ethical issues that tax practitioners regularly
face regarding attorney advertising, use of contingency fees, providing
advice in an uncertain legal environment, tax return preparation,
settlements, litigation and fee disputes with clients. Panelists from
government, law firms and CPA firms will offer practical perspectives as
they consider ethical dilemmas common to tax practices. Any tax
practitioner that ignores the warnings and insights that will be
provided by this program’s presenters does so at his or her own risk.
