Gilman Ciocia sets December workshop schedule

Gilman Ciocia, a provider of federal, state and local tax planning and preparation services, has set its schedule of workshops taking place in Williamsville and Snyder in December.

Workshops are designed to educate attendees about the importance of tax planning not only in April but also throughout the year. Session facilitators will demonstrate ways to reduce current income tax, possibly recover back taxes, protect personal assets and achieve financial security.

Attendees receive a free lunch or dinner during the presentation.

"Income taxes are the largest expense the average American incurs in his or her lifetime," Michael Ryan, president and CEO of Gilman Ciocia, said. "It is especially important now, at the end of the year, for individuals to take a look at their financial portfolio."

The schedule is as follows: 3 p.m. Dec. 5 at the Eagle House Restaurant, 5578 Main St., Williamsville; 6 p.m. Dec. 11 at the Sonoma Grill, 5010 Main St., near Kensington Avenue, Snyder; 3 p.m. Dec. 12 and 6 p.m. Dec. 13, both at Sonoma Grill.
