Why should you attend?

Section 199A is a long, complex and difficult section in the Internal Revenue Code, but its basic provisions can be explained in plain English that non-tax lawyers and their business owner clients can understand. After learning this information, you will be able to explain Section 199A to your clients and, in some cases, explain to them how to maximize the Section 199A deductions available to them.
