A contingent fee is always more valuable when the receipt of it is deferred. You pay tax later, you pay less tax now, and you defer tax on investment earnings. You can invest deferred fees using any number of arrangements. But no matter which arrangement is used, the basic steps to avoid immediate taxation are the same. This presentation will walk through the steps needed, why they’re important, and provide recommended language you can use.
