Ask The Taxgirl: Michael Jackson's Funeral

One of my recent “ask the taxgirl” questions involved whether Michael Jackson’s funeral expenses were deductible. When I paused to consider whether I wanted to post about Michael, a colleague kindly offered to address the issue on his blog at sofloridaestateplanning.com. The blog is authored by David Shulman, an attorney located in South Florida who focuses his practice on Wills, Trusts and Estates, and Tax Planning. David has been blogging other issues related to Michael Jackson, so I was more than happy to defer to him.

So are those expenses deductible? Check out David’s answer over at SoFloridaEstatePlanning.com and see. For the record, I concur with his answer!

Thanks, David!
