Business Advice and Planning

Our Tax Practice believes tax planning and advice should be anything except “general.”

We are, first and foremost, practical business-oriented lawyers. We help clients—individuals, partnerships and corporations—incorporate sound tax planning into specific business strategy. With our clients’ overall business objectives as our guide, we advise on:

  • Business formation and structure
  • Executive and employee compensation (including the use of different types of compensation, such as deferred compensation, true and phantom equity, and profits interests)
  • Negotiating and structuring joint ventures
  • Investments into and buy-outs from businesses
  • Tax implications of transactions and investments
  • Tax audits

While federal income tax is at the core of most planning, “SALT” planning (and in particular New York State and City tax planning) is a substantial part of our practice. We also regularly advise clients in connection with international and other multi-jurisdictional planning.
