Knowledgeable attorney advises clients in the Tampa area on tax planning and gifting

If your estate is large enough to trigger federal or state inheritance or estate taxes, Longa Law Firm, P.A. can help you reduce your exposure through prudent planning, including business succession strategies and wealth transfers to your heirs. I assist clients by structuring business transactions, planning their charitable giving, and advising on tax matters. My aim is to minimize the impact of gift taxes, estate taxes and generation-skipping transfer taxes. Through the strategic use of income- and asset-transfer devices, I work to help you take full advantage of all applicable tax credits, deductions, exemptions and elections. Serving clients and their families in the Tampa area and throughout Florida, I give careful thought and attention to each individual estate.
