About
Our practice is: (i) 20% ordinary income tax planning; (ii) 20% capital gain tax planning; (iii) 20% estate planning and estate tax planning. (iv) 10% tax litigation, audits and appeals; and (v) 10% international tax planning. Estate tax planning is different than "estate planning": estate planning determines "who gets what". By contrast, estate TAX planning determines the value of what is passed to your heirs. In estate tax planning we use the tools Congress has provided - family limited partnerships, GRATs (grantor retained annuity trusts), private annuities, SCINs (self-canceling installment notes), qualified personal residence trusts, etc - to pass value on to the heirs at reduced value. In income tax planning we use the tools which Congress has provided - retirement plans and charitable structures - to reduce income taxes, provide for retirement and support worthy causes. Note that the same structures used for tax planning also have creditor protection benefits. For example, a qualified personal residence trust reduces the value of the principal residence for estate tax purposes; it also reduces the attractiveness of the equity in your home to a future creditor. Our practice is primarily based on referrals from CPAs, secondarily from other lawyers, financial planners and clients.

My parents and I needed some estate planning and help with our wills. He set them up for us very quickly and efficiently. Bruce has a very keen intellect and could have been a rocket scientist or something of that matter! He enjoys his work and this shows from the moment you shake hands with him. He also just happens to have a great sense of humor! It gives me great pleasure to review him! Before we saw Bruce, we consulted with a family friend, who also works in taxation and estate planning, but Bruce's experience shows that he is first rate. If you live in Los Angeles (the Valley or the West-side), without a doubt he is the person for your estate planning and taxation law matters and he will solve them very quickly and professionally.
Mr. Givner has a wealth of knowledge and experience and I would highly recommend him for anybody that needs to work on their estate planning. He was recomended by a colleague and if anyone I know ever needs help I will be referring them to Bruce! He listens closely to what you need and lays out your choices and strategies and is up to date with all the new laws and is an encyclopedia of information in this area. Highly recommended and you’re in good hands with him!
I have spoken to 2-3 attorneys and "paid" them no one gave me a straight answer about fraudulent of RE transfer question. Your answer is crystal clear and free. I think you are a great attorney. If there was a room for 10 stars I would give you 10. Please feel free to contact me. I did not consult you but I checking consulted, otherwise the system will not let me post my review. Good Job Bravo !!!
I have known and worked with Bruce for over 20 years on estate planning involving cross border transactions: either US persons with assets abroad or foreign persons with assets in the US. I have also worked with him on international asset protection planning. Bruce's knowledge and recall of the law is remarkable; Bruce's wiciked sense of humor is humanizing; and his documents are superb.
I work with Mr. Givner for a few years now and found him very knowledgable and professional. I trust his opinions and suggestions and I feel comfortable to recommend him to anyone who needs his services.
Bruce, is very straight forward and giving with his time. He helps you understand some complex ideas in a very simple fashion, answering all your questions as you go along. He is very knowledgeable about all the different tax laws and uses them to analyze your specific situation.
My family first started working with Bruce in 1988, when I was in college. When it came time for me to assume the estate, Bruce was there to guide through the initial process. The estate was complex and contentious, and I was certainly not prepared for the complex legal transition. Not having a legal, real estate or accounting backround, I turned to Bruce for help. Many other "proffesionals" that I was working with obfuscate the transition with legal/ proffesional jargon. Bruce gave me straightforward answers with understandable explanations and analogies. I am now in the second year of running the real estate based trust. I would have not made it through the first six months without Bruce's expert estate and tax advice. Your immediate planning needs are important. However, please take into consideration the long term impact of the lawyer you select now, with regard to the long term needs of those you seek to protect.
I am a business owner in Los Angeles and have known Bruce Givner for a long time. It was a pleasure to be introduced to Bruce. He first helped to create an asset protection plan for myself and my family. Later Bruce assisted my company in saving a tremendous amount in tax. I highly recommend Bruce Givner.
Before I engaged Bruce as my tax attorney, I’d met and talked to several tax lawyers; none of them I talked to have exuded the level of confidence, trust, and professionalism like Bruce has. I was trying to find a good lawyer that can really help me navigate through the IRS examination process. Only a few minutes into the phone conversation with Bruce for the first time, I knew intuitively that he is the right person to handle the problem I have with the IRS. In every subsequence meetings I had with him, he wasted no time to get directly to the point. He asked all the right questions. He made me focus on the problem instead of the fear and worry of the possible outcomes of the case. Without his help, I still have doubts whether I have the stomach and motivation to go through this torturous IRS examination process. His legal advice and not related to legal advice are invaluable. The decision to retain his legal service is not only one of the most important decisions, but also the right one I made in life.
Mr. Givner listened to me, heard me, and then communicated different strategies to not only help me, but my children.

Highly recommended and you’re in good hands with him!
I have spoken to 2-3 attorneys and "paid" them no one gave me a straight answer about fraudulent of RE transfer question. Your answer is crystal clear and free. I think you are a great attorney. If there was a room for 10 stars I would give you 10. Please feel free to contact me. I did not consult you but I checking consulted, otherwise the system will not let me post my review. Good Job Bravo !!!
I have known and worked with Bruce for over 20 years on estate planning involving cross border transactions: either US persons with assets abroad or foreign persons with assets in the US. I have also worked with him on international asset protection planning. Bruce's knowledge and recall of the law is remarkable; Bruce's wiciked sense of humor is humanizing; and his documents are superb.
I work with Mr. Givner for a few years now and found him very knowledgable and professional. I trust his opinions and suggestions and I feel comfortable to recommend him to anyone who needs his services.
Bruce, is very straight forward and giving with his time. He helps you understand some complex ideas in a very simple fashion, answering all your questions as you go along. He is very knowledgeable about all the different tax laws and uses them to analyze your specific situation.
My family first started working with Bruce in 1988, when I was in college. When it came time for me to assume the estate, Bruce was there to guide through the initial process. The estate was complex and contentious, and I was certainly not prepared for the complex legal transition. Not having a legal, real estate or accounting backround, I turned to Bruce for help. Many other "proffesionals" that I was working with obfuscate the transition with legal/ proffesional jargon. Bruce gave me straightforward answers with understandable explanations and analogies. I am now in the second year of running the real estate based trust. I would have not made it through the first six months without Bruce's expert estate and tax advice. Your immediate planning needs are important. However, please take into consideration the long term impact of the lawyer you select now, with regard to the long term needs of those you seek to protect.
I am a business owner in Los Angeles and have known Bruce Givner for a long time. It was a pleasure to be introduced to Bruce. He first helped to create an asset protection plan for myself and my family. Later Bruce assisted my company in saving a tremendous amount in tax. I highly recommend Bruce Givner.
Before I engaged Bruce as my tax attorney, I’d met and talked to several tax lawyers; none of them I talked to have exuded the level of confidence, trust, and professionalism like Bruce has. I was trying to find a good lawyer that can really help me navigate through the IRS examination process. Only a few minutes into the phone conversation with Bruce for the first time, I knew intuitively that he is the right person to handle the problem I have with the IRS. In every subsequence meetings I had with him, he wasted no time to get directly to the point. He asked all the right questions. He made me focus on the problem instead of the fear and worry of the possible outcomes of the case. Without his help, I still have doubts whether I have the stomach and motivation to go through this torturous IRS examination process. His legal advice and not related to legal advice are invaluable. The decision to retain his legal service is not only one of the most important decisions, but also the right one I made in life.
Mr. Givner listened to me, heard me, and then communicated different strategies to not only help me, but my children.
My parents and I needed some estate planning and help with our wills. He set them up for us very quickly and efficiently. Bruce has a very keen intellect and could have been a rocket scientist or something of that matter! He enjoys his work and this shows from the moment you shake hands with him. He also just happens to have a great sense of humor! It gives me great pleasure to review him! Before we saw Bruce, we consulted with a family friend, who also works in taxation and estate planning, but Bruce's experience shows that he is first rate. If you live in Los Angeles (the Valley or the West-side), without a doubt he is the person for your estate planning and taxation law matters and he will solve them very quickly and professionally.

Before I engaged Bruce as my tax attorney, I’d met and talked to several tax lawyers; none of them I talked to have exuded the level of confidence, trust, and professionalism like Bruce has. I was trying to find a good lawyer that can really help me navigate through the IRS examination process. Only a few minutes into the phone conversation with Bruce for the first time, I knew intuitively that he is the right person to handle the problem I have with the IRS. In every subsequence meetings I had with him, he wasted no time to get directly to the point. He asked all the right questions. He made me focus on the problem instead of the fear and worry of the possible outcomes of the case. Without his help, I still have doubts whether I have the stomach and motivation to go through this torturous IRS examination process. His legal advice and not related to legal advice are invaluable. The decision to retain his legal service is not only one of the most important decisions, but also the right one I made in life.
Mr. Givner listened to me, heard me, and then communicated different strategies to not only help me, but my children.
My parents and I needed some estate planning and help with our wills. He set them up for us very quickly and efficiently. Bruce has a very keen intellect and could have been a rocket scientist or something of that matter! He enjoys his work and this shows from the moment you shake hands with him. He also just happens to have a great sense of humor! It gives me great pleasure to review him! Before we saw Bruce, we consulted with a family friend, who also works in taxation and estate planning, but Bruce's experience shows that he is first rate. If you live in Los Angeles (the Valley or the West-side), without a doubt he is the person for your estate planning and taxation law matters and he will solve them very quickly and professionally.
Mr. Givner has a wealth of knowledge and experience and I would highly recommend him for anybody that needs to work on their estate planning. He was recomended by a colleague and if anyone I know ever needs help I will be referring them to Bruce! He listens closely to what you need and lays out your choices and strategies and is up to date with all the new laws and is an encyclopedia of information in this area. Highly recommended and you’re in good hands with him!
I have spoken to 2-3 attorneys and "paid" them no one gave me a straight answer about fraudulent of RE transfer question. Your answer is crystal clear and free. I think you are a great attorney. If there was a room for 10 stars I would give you 10. Please feel free to contact me. I did not consult you but I checking consulted, otherwise the system will not let me post my review. Good Job Bravo !!!
I have known and worked with Bruce for over 20 years on estate planning involving cross border transactions: either US persons with assets abroad or foreign persons with assets in the US. I have also worked with him on international asset protection planning. Bruce's knowledge and recall of the law is remarkable; Bruce's wiciked sense of humor is humanizing; and his documents are superb.
I work with Mr. Givner for a few years now and found him very knowledgable and professional. I trust his opinions and suggestions and I feel comfortable to recommend him to anyone who needs his services.
Bruce, is very straight forward and giving with his time. He helps you understand some complex ideas in a very simple fashion, answering all your questions as you go along. He is very knowledgeable about all the different tax laws and uses them to analyze your specific situation.
My family first started working with Bruce in 1988, when I was in college. When it came time for me to assume the estate, Bruce was there to guide through the initial process. The estate was complex and contentious, and I was certainly not prepared for the complex legal transition. Not having a legal, real estate or accounting backround, I turned to Bruce for help. Many other "proffesionals" that I was working with obfuscate the transition with legal/ proffesional jargon. Bruce gave me straightforward answers with understandable explanations and analogies. I am now in the second year of running the real estate based trust. I would have not made it through the first six months without Bruce's expert estate and tax advice. Your immediate planning needs are important. However, please take into consideration the long term impact of the lawyer you select now, with regard to the long term needs of those you seek to protect.
