Taxation & Tax Law

Our business planning, estate planning and real estate attorneys employ the tax law to add value to our clients’ businesses and transactions. We advise clients on a broad range of tax issues, from corporate reorganizations to tax exemption qualification and planning for local non-profit organizations. We offer a thorough knowledge of new business structures, such as limited liability companies and limited liability partnerships and other unincorporated entities.

We believe it is imperative to remain current with the latest developments in the tax arena. As tax laws evolve and change, our goal is to anticipate those changes and develop strategies and techniques that can reduce transactional costs for our clients.

• Tax planning, including advising clients on the tax consequences of business and financial transactions
• Design and administration of tax-qualified retirement plans, profit-sharing plans, fringe benefit plans and non-qualified deferred compensation arrangements
