Relationship: Worked together on matter
"I've worked with Donald Read for close to 25 years. My clients and I have always been pleased and completely satisfied with the speed and quality of his services. Don is preeminent in the field of taxation as it relates to family law, having been instrumental, through his ABA committee work, in obtaining spouse-friendly family law tax legislation and regulations. Don is especially expert in dealing with stock options and other nonqualified deferred compensation plans in the divorce context."
