With attorneys who are CPAs and have worked in state government departments of revenue, attorneys general offices, and Big Four public accounting firms, our team possesses deep and varied experience that ensures we can meet our clients’ most important needs.
Through our Tax Intelligence system, containing thousands of records – including case filings, unreported decisions, and other noteworthy documents – that are not readily available through commercial sources, our team tracks key state tax issues as they’re happening. Knowing these developments in advance allows us to bring opportunities to our clients earlier than other service providers.
Our team’s experience and holistic approach mean that they are litigators and seasoned tax advisors who understand how to reduce our clients’ tax expense to increase their bottom line.
We have more than 30 dedicated state tax attorneys throughout the country – the largest number of dedicated state tax attorneys of any law firm – with attorneys strategically located in offices across the United States.
The geographic breadth and experience of our team allow us to coordinate state tax issues and advise on a national level to help clients avoid decisions made in one jurisdiction from having unintended tax consequences in others. Likewise, as our team identifies refund opportunities in “new” jurisdictions for our clients, our institutional knowledge about those clients’ business operations, data availability, and internal policy priorities allow us to tailor our recommendations accordingly.
We’re also keenly aware of the importance of preserving clients’ hard-earned goodwill with the public. Our record includes achieving favorable and confidential settlements in nationwide matters involving hot-button disputes or other public tax issues. We work with clients to develop public relations strategies that minimize negative exposure and highlight success.
