Tamara Ashford Leads Webinar on the Instant Impact on Tax Lawyers

Tamara Ashford has been selected by the speaker board of ExecSense to lead a webinar on Understanding the Instant Impact on Tax Lawyers of Consolidated Edison Co. v. United States on LILO Transactions and “Economic Substance” Analysis.
 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PR Log (Press Release)Nov 22, 2009 – “Understanding the Instant Impact on Tax Lawyers of Consolidated Edison Co. v. United States (Fed. Cl. Oct. 21, 2009) on LILO Transactions and ‘Economic Substance’ Analysis” is a time efficient way to be in-the-know on the most up to date facts and ramifications of this case and take proactive steps on behalf of current and prospective clients it could impact the most. Tax Lawyers should take the 60 minutes to view this webinar (via computer, mobile phone, iPod or printed out) to make sure they have answers ready to key questions they are sure to be asked on the immediate ramifications of this decision by colleagues, clients and other professionals with whom they discuss the case, as the tax legitimacy of LILO transactions may be analyzed very differently than in the past.

ccording to Catharine Lloyd, head of speaker relations for ExecSense, “We were honored to have Ms. Ashford lead a webinar on this topic.  Her work is highly regarded in the industry and the webinar is a great resource for tax lawyers.”

According to Ms. Ashford, “not only is the recent decision of the Court of Federal Claims, a court of national jurisdiction, important because it reaffirms the proper standard regarding the economic substance doctrine and how the doctrine should be applied, it also represents a significant taxpayer victory coming on the heels of a successful IRS settlement initiative for LILO/SILO transactions after the IRS had been victorious in several previous LILO/SILO cases.”

For complete information or to purchase this webinar, please visit http://ExecSense.com/details.asp?id=550 or call us at (415) 453-3003.
