The Materials describe general tax-planning concepts. They are not a tax return, tax opinion, representation before the IRS or a state tax authority, accounting advice, or assurance that any strategy will reduce tax, be available, be suitable, be implemented, be respected by a tax authority, or produce a stated result.

Tax laws, regulations, administrative guidance, forms, interpretations, deadlines, and enforcement positions change. The availability and consequences of a planning strategy depend on your complete facts, timing, implementation, documentation, entity structure, income, residency, governing law, and actions of tax authorities. You should consult your own qualified tax adviser before taking action. Unless a written agreement expressly states otherwise, PWS does not prepare your tax return, sign your return, or represent you before a tax authority.

No statement in the Materials should be understood as encouraging tax evasion or as a promise that a strategy is “audit-proof,” “audit-defensible,” “IRS-approved,” or guaranteed to achieve a tax result. PWS supports lawful tax planning, proper documentation, accurate reporting, and professional review appropriate to the client’s circumstances.
