Federal Tax

Federal tax questions often arise before a major business decision is made. The structure selected at the outset can affect the economics of a transaction and the flexibility available later. We help clients understand those consequences before commitments are made, while also advising on tax issues that arise during ongoing operations.

Our attorneys advise businesses and their owners on federal income tax matters involving C corporations, S corporations, and pass-through entities. We assist with tax planning, compliance, and business reorganizations that affect both day-to-day operations and continued growth.

We also advise clients on the tax aspects of mergers, acquisitions, and other complex business transactions. Working closely with attorneys across the firm’s corporate and tax practice, we help structure transactions to maximize available tax benefits while addressing federal, state, and international tax considerations.

When tax controversies arise, we represent businesses and individuals before the IRS in audits and administrative appeals. We work to resolve disputes efficiently while protecting our clients’ financial and business interests.
