Harry Gordon Oliver II
I began working with the Internal Revenue Service in the early 70s, and worked for Big Eight accounting firms before commencing the practice of law.
All my work experience and education is directly in the areas that I practice presently. That results in informal continuing education.
My strength is my unique conceptual understanding of the law of my practice - tax, trust and estate law.
I am easy-going and sincere but driven to provide my clients with a timely solution.
My personal interests include family, friends and fishing.
