This site was created by a NY tax lawyer. Tax law can be very boring!

Although the information contained at this site is informative and useful, the tax laws, by nature, are highly technical. We will attempt to eliminate the tedious details wherever possible. Instead, we will try to alert you to important considerations that you may not be aware of. For those of you who want tedious details, you can find them at www.irs.ustreas.gov/formspubs/index.html. In many instances, we have provided the publication and/or form number to help you search the government's website.
In addition to tax law pointers, we have included guidance with regard to financial planning and other relevant topics.

Note that some of Masullo's stories and newsletter archives may be out of date in view of the constantly changing tax laws. Therefore, you should not rely on any of the information at this site without first checking with us.
