He is the author of five books about tax-exempt planning and charitable tax deductions published by the Taft Group of Kensington, MD and Detroit, MI. Mr. Tueller conceived, then for thirteen years co-authored, then published, a monthly newsletter about tax-exempt planning.
Mr. Tueller taught a tax course about tax-exempt planning and charitable tax deductions at Brigham Young University Law School. He is a founder and chairman of Premier Administration, LLC, a tax-exempt trust administration and compliance company. He is a member of the bar in New York, California, Utah, and Washington.

Mr. Tueller consults with financial professionals, tax-exempt organizations, and their friends nationwide, assisting them with tax, financial and estate planning. He has directed the design, development, and administration of thousands of tax-exempt trusts and organizations, with a total initial funding in excess of $1 billion, about $250 million of which would otherwise have been paid in taxes.
