The Talk:

Canada and the United States have long been attractive destinations for foreign persons moving away from their home countries.  However, moving to these countries without proper tax planning may have costly consequences.

Join us at this webinar where Kevin Lee and Erik Wallace will focus on the tax rules of both jurisdictions as well as a few of the planning techniques implemented by high-net-worth individuals before immigrating to Canada or the United States.

The Speakers:

Erik Wallace - Partner - Loeb & Loeb LLP

Erik focuses his practice in the areas of trusts and estates, taxation and international probate with an emphasis on matters involving U.S. persons or property.

Erik counsels high net worth families in connection with their overall succession planning, often working together with their family offices, businesses, trustees and foundations to meet the families' objectives. As part of that planning, he has assisted clients in structuring or restructuring trusts, as well as establishing private trust companies and international charitable foundations.

Additionally, Erik has worked with families on a number of international probates and helped them implement post-mortem tax planning.
