Tax

Effective planning, practical solutions


We advise business and individual clients in federal, state, and local tax planning, estate and gift tax planning, and nonprofit organization tax issues.

We are experienced in all aspects of federal and state income tax, multistate income tax, estate and gift tax, franchise tax, excise taxes, and sales and use tax. We also routinely assist clients with various forms of tax controversies, including federal and state tax audits.

We advise clients on tax planning issues associated with entity formation, reorganizations, acquisitions and liquidations. We regularly assist our nonprofit clients in applying for and maintaining tax-exempt status. We also provide tax planning advice for settlements and judgments and in cross border transactions, and assist clients with like-kind exchanges.
