Federal Taxation

Client Services

Our attorneys assist business clients in dealing with the changing tax environment by focusing on tax savings and compliance issues. The firm's practice includes federal tax planning and representation for individuals as well as all aspects of corporations, partnerships (including limited partnerships, family limited partnerships, and limited liability partnerships), and limited liability companies, including issues involving formation, operation, reorganization, and liquidation.

• Planning for acquisition, development, operation, and disposition of real estate.
  
  
• Consultation regarding pension and profit sharing plans, section 401(k) plans, cafeteria and welfare benefit plans, VEBAs, and deferred compensation arrangements.
  
  
• All aspects of partnership and limited liability company taxation, including formation, operation, liquidation, and reorganization.
  
  
• Structuring syndications of limited partnerships and limited liability company interests and exploring tax-advantaged investments.
  
  
• Advising on the special problems of non-profit organizations, including tax-exempt status and unrelated business income tax.
