A webinar presented by Empire Justice

Financial abuse is an all-too-common form of victimization. Unfortunately, people who’ve suffered this type of abuse often find themselves mired in unexpected tax troubles as a consequence, thus magnifying and retriggering the initial trauma. This one-hour webinar is designed as an issue-spotting primer, enabling attendees to recognize a pertinent tax issue when they see one, provide basic, useful information, and lead their clients in a fruitful direction.

This webinar will: cover several common financial abuse scenarios that can impact a victim’s tax liability; outline the available remedies, such as innocent spouse relief; touch upon tax consequences of awards, and provide a list of agencies you can partner with as you guide your clients along their path to tax resolution.

Presenter: Barbara Heggie, Managing Attorney, Tax Advocacy Program, Empire Justice Center
