  LEGAL SEASON'S GREETINGS

HAPPY 2000!

PLAN NOW FOR HOLIDAY SUCCESS

December seems to be one of the busiest times of the year for many Alaskans, as well as the law firm. Avoid legal problems by keeping in mind the following:

• If you married, are considering marriage, divorced, or purchased stocks in 1999, consult with your CPA or accountant about tax consequences.

•If there are holiday visitation issues, attempt to work out an agreement far in advance with the other parent, and if that fails, file early to avoid the last minute emergency rush.

•Wear seat belts and designate drivers if drinking to minimize the risk of injuries, accidents and arrests this holiday season.

On behalf of everyone at Pradell and Associates, have a safe and happy holiday season!
