Patent Abuse of the Federal Income Tax System? Exploring the Limits of Patented Tax Advice
Steven J. Henry and Edmund J. Walsh, both partners at Wolf, Greenfield & Sacks, P.C., will explore the current controversy over patenting tax advice and tax compliance methodologies from a patent lawyer’s perspective. What at first seemed like a patently absurd issue now has tax practitioners wondering whether their advice might subject themselves or their clients to potential liability for patent infringement--and perhaps whether they should seek patent protection for their own innovative tax-planning techniques. |

This seminar will provide an overview of the important role bond financing plays in the development and financing of affordable housing projects.
