Forbes:  “If you miss the 60-day rollover deadline, will the IRS be sympathetic?  You can move wealth from a company pension plan, a 401(k) or traditional Individual Retirement Account into a traditional IRA without owing any taxes in what’s known as a ‘rollover.’ . . . a surprising number of taxpayers make mistakes when doing a simple rollover and end up either paying taxes prematurely or paying an expert like me to help them clear up the mess.”

I known that Mr. Keebler is one of the leading experts in the area of IRA law because of his close relationship with WealthCounsel, a fabulous company that produces the best estate planning software that a lot of money can buy.  I have been a member of WealthCounsel and have used its software since September of 2005.  If you are an estate planning lawyer who does more than a few estate plans a year, you owe it to yourself and your clients to purchase the WealthCounsel software.  Call me if you would like to get my two cents on why I love the company and the software.
