Gift and estate tax returns are often complicated tax documents that report transfers of valuable interests in property and large amounts of money or other liquid assets. Reinhart Trusts and Estates attorneys have great experience preparing and filing complicated returns. The process of completing a return often requires us to work closely with appraisers and other valuation experts in order to finalize the values of the assets transferred. In addition, if a Reinhart attorney assisted in the actual transfer of an asset, we will have an in‑depth knowledge of the transaction and will be able to complete a return accurately and efficiently.

Gift and estate tax returns that result in taxes being paid are targeted for audits more often than other returns. Therefore, it is in a client's best interest to have the return prepared by an experienced attorney.  However, sometimes a return is going to be audited nonetheless. If that is the case, Reinhart Trusts and Estates attorneys can represent you through all the necessary stages, from administratively settling the case with the IRS or by taking the case to court.
