• Kiss Me Goodbye (Massachusetts): Best practices for planning and effecting a domicile change (it’s more than a checklist!)
• Just When I Thought I Was Out...They Pull Me Back In: A procedural roadmap for navigating residency audits, appeals, litigation and settlements, with practical guidance at every turn
• Catch Me If You Can: For nonresidents, a closer look at frequently unexpected items of Massachusetts source income, including income related to sales of business entities, stock options and in-state meetings
