Our Tax Team partners with business owners, C-Suites executive and individuals to navigate the complexities of today’s tax landscape.
With broad domestic and international experience, we provide forward-thinking guidance on structuring, compliance, and restructuring—keeping you informed and prepared for changing tax laws and policies.
U.S. federal tax policies shift rapidly, driven by politics and the President’s economic agenda—meaning your strategy must adapt just as quickly. Our tax professionals stay at the forefront of legislative and regulatory changes, helping you stay ahead and turn tax challenges into opportunities for growth.
State taxes present their own complexities, with each state applying different rules based on business activity. We cut through the confusion, assess your compliance requirements, and help you choose the optimal state for your business operations and personal residency.
Sales tax is a state-imposed tax on the sale of goods and certain services, with rules that vary by jurisdiction. We help you determine where you have sales tax obligations, ensure accurate collection and reporting, and keep you compliant across all states.
Payroll tax is withheld from employee wages to fund Social Security, Medicare, and other government programs, with strict federal and state filing requirements. We manage your payroll tax calculations, filings, and payments—reducing errors and avoiding costly penalties.
We help foreign investors navigate every stage of the process—from selecting the optimal investment structure to minimizing tax exposure, managing withholding tax obligations, and ensuring compliance with U.S. laws—so you can invest with confidence and maximize returns.
Global expansion creates opportunity and complex tax challenges. We design cross-border strategies, ensure compliance, and work with our worldwide network to help you minimize taxes and achieve international success.
Tax treaties can significantly reduce cross-border tax costs—but only if you know how to apply them. We analyze applicable treaties to optimize withholding rates, avoid double taxation, and ensure compliance with both U.S. and foreign rules. Our strategic approach helps individuals and businesses unlock treaty benefits while minimizing global tax exposure.
A permanent establishment is a taxable presence in a foreign country, often triggered by having offices, employees, or significant business activity there. We identify potential PE risks, structure your operations to minimize exposure, and ensure compliance—helping you protect profits while expanding globally.
GILTI and Subpart F rules can subject U.S. shareholders of foreign corporations to immediate U.S. tax on certain foreign earnings. We design tax-efficient structures, apply available elections, and implement planning strategies to reduce or defer these taxes—helping you keep more of your global profits.
The Foreign Tax Credit helps U.S. taxpayers avoid double taxation on income earned abroad—but the rules are complex. We analyze your foreign income and taxes, identify eligible credits, and develop strategies to maximize benefits while ensuring full compliance with IRS requirements.
Research and development tax credits and investment incentives reward businesses for innovation, product development, and capital investment. We identify eligible activities and costs, optimize claims, and develop strategies to reduce your tax burden—freeing up funds to drive future growth.
We represent clients in IRS, state, and international tax disputes, including audits, appeals, and negotiations—working to protect your rights and minimize financial impact. For undisclosed foreign assets, we provide strategic guidance through voluntary disclosure programs, helping you restore compliance, avoid severe penalties, and move forward with confidence.
Entering or leaving the U.S.—whether moving abroad, giving up a green card, or renouncing citizenship—can trigger substantial income, gift, estate, and even exit tax obligations. Without proactive planning, you could face unexpected taxation on worldwide assets, transfers, and future inheritances.
We design strategies to optimize your tax position before the move, restructure assets, and coordinate trust and estate planning. Our expertise helps minimize exposure, manage exit tax, and ensure full compliance—protecting your wealth through every stage of the transition.
Different business structures can be designed to optimize tax outcomes, including holding companies that protect assets and offer significant tax benefits.
How you fund your business—through equity, debt, or a mix of both—can have major tax, control, and cash flow implications. We help you evaluate financing options, structure investor arrangements, and design capitalization plans that align with your growth goals while optimizing tax efficiency.
The way ownership and control are structured affects taxation, decision-making, and long-term business flexibility. We analyze your current structure, assess tax and governance implications, and design arrangements that protect your interests, align with your goals, and support sustainable growth.
