<p class="MsoNormal">I have a potential client with a taxable estate, and 3 of her 4 kids permanently living in Japan (and apparently are all still dual citizens). She is looking for someone to sit down and discuss her estate planning and the implications
of both the WA estate tax and Japan's inheritance/gift taxes. <br>
<br>
She is located in Seattle. All referrals will be passed on. Thank you all in advance.
