2021 Professional Advisor Seminar

We are thrilled that this event will be hosted in-person at Pegasus Park, a newly developed office campus designed to bolster local biotech, social impact and corporate innovation, and the new home for The Dallas Foundation.

Our keynote speaker, Samuel A. Donaldson, JD, LL.M., will discuss The Winds of Change: Recent Developments in Federal Income, Estate and Gift Taxes. Join us for an informative and entertaining recap of the important federal income, estate, and gift tax cases, rulings, regulations, and legislation from the past 12 months. We’ll also hear an analysis of how these developments affect planning for clients with small, medium, and large estates.
