Taxation Committee

The role of the Tax Committee is primarily educational. Guest speakers are invited to monthly meetings to discuss specific areas of law that are of interest to the Committee. The Committee meets annually with representatives from the Internal Revenue Service and the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue to share knowledge about their respective trust and estate practices.

Meetings

Meetings are generally held the fourth Tuesday of the month at 8:15 am. Please contact the Committee Chair for further details.
