Purchased an existing accounting practice in 1976 when I graduated from the University of Kentucky with a BS degree in accounting. Thru the years my experience ranged from preparation in individual income tax returns, partnership, S corporate, C corporate, partnership, and LLC related tax returns. In the past 15 years after contracting with a local Bank's Trust Department with preparing their Trust tax returns, I have expanded my specialties into the preparation of Form 1041 returns including Estates, Revocable and Irrevocable Trusts (including GSTs and QSSTs) and Gift Tax Returns. In 2012 I sold 90% of my accounting practice keeping my Form 1041 and Gift Tax Return area of my practice deciding to specialize using my expertise in the tax preparation of Trusts and Estate. I can be contacted at smithtax@harlanonline.net for potential clients wishing services in these areas.
