I attended the webinar with Peter & Rebecca, and they were very thorough with the delivery and their knowledge base of the subject matter. Very eager to assist you and your clients, they have an open-door policy and stated several times if you need any specifics just shoot them an email. Definitely clarified areas of uncertainty with all the "opportunist" spreading false and gimmick appealing information to taxpayers. I would recommend any professional or interested taxpayer to seek their advice and guidance.
