Overview
Bressler’s team of experienced tax attorneys works with individuals, businesses, tax-exempt entities, estates, trustees, and international private clients to provide advice and counsel on a wide range of tax issues and concerns. We strive to give our clients clear, straightforward advice on minimizing taxes while achieving their personal and business goals and efficiently and effectively fulfilling their reporting, disclosure, and compliance obligations. When a tax dispute or controversy arises, our Tax attorneys represent our clients before the IRS or state tax authorities, and in court proceedings, arbitrations, and mediations.
The firm’s Tax team assists our clients with issues ranging from the tax aspects of investments, retirement benefits, and deferred compensation strategies, to the use of efficient wealth transfer planning to minimize the impact of estate, gift, and GST tax, to the integration of tax-wise charitable and philanthropic strategies into their tax and estate plans. We defend individuals in tax examinations and collection proceedings, and we guide our international private clients through their U.S. tax reporting and disclosure obligations.
For our business clients, our Tax team advises on the tax issues and concerns that arise through their organization’s life cycle - from initial structuring to mergers, acquisitions, and investment structures, to executive and employee compensation, to sale or winding down and dissolution. With our colleagues in the firm’s Corporate and Commercial Transactions practice, Real Estate, Labor & Employment Law, General Litigation, and Private Client practices, we form a cross-disciplinary and collaborative legal team focused on efficiently addressing the various legal needs of our business clients.
