Taxation and Estate Planning

Taxation and Estate Planning

In our tax practice we help our clients plan, structure, negotiate, and implement numerous forms of business transactions, combinations, and financings.  The types of matters handled also include tax-free and taxable reorganizations, spin-offs, acquisitions and dispositions, recapitalizations, joint ventures, leasing transactions, and tax litigation.  We also have experience in employee compensation and benefit plans and provide general tax counseling to corporations, individuals, and charitable organizations.

Not only do we advise in the areas of personal tax planning, retirement, philanthropy, risk management, and asset protection, but also we assist with probate and trust administration, guardianships, estate and gift tax compliance, generation skipping transfer tax, the formation of nonprofit corporations and foundations, and areas concerning the formation, operation, and disposition of family business interests.  We utilize the expertise of the firm’s other real estate, business, and litigation groups to provide thorough service in these areas.
