In today's rapidly changing tax climate, counsel must be current in the law and responsive to the immediate and long range tax concerns of its clients. The tax, trust and estate practice of DiFrancesco, Bateman, Coley, Yospin, Kunzman, Davis & Lehrer, P.C. involves precise knowledge of federal, state and local tax codes which effect individuals, partnerships and corporations.
