Owen Mccafferty, CPA (US)

The nuances of serving client(s) in a divorce were much appreciated. The presentation is heavily focused on Forms to be used but balances the mechanical side with the sensitivity of the issue. The Ethical considerations and the conflicts of interest discussion were greatly appreciated and offer quite a bit of food for thought. The speaker was very energetic and enthusiastic about this topic area. Obviously, he has quite a bit of experience. Veronica did a great job hosting the presentation. Live commentary is appreciated. Sorry, Sean.
