This practice-focused book is now fully updated to explain the legislation's impact on all aspects of charitable planning. It provides clear and insightful explanations of all relevant tax law, financial considerations, and includes drafting guidelines, and forms to assist with clients' charitable giving needs as part of a comprehensive estate and financial plan.
