Globalization also creates complex tax issues requiring deep knowledge of national tax laws, tax treaties, and information sharing programs. Given our global tax presence and over 90 tax professionals, clients routinely seek our advice on reaching their business goals in light of the multiplicity of national tax laws and the cross-border nature of today’s complex tax issues.
Tax efficiency, risk reduction, avoidance of tax controversy, and the successful resolution of an unavoidable dispute are goals that can best be met where the tax team possesses strong national and cross-border experience. We effectively and efficiently partner with our clients to meet these goals.
Whether the tax issues involve a single country or are cross-border, encompass planning for tax efficiency or require resolution of a civil or criminal tax controversy or investigation, our global Tax Group partners with our clients to develop effective solutions.
We understand the business and legal intricacies of international business and taxation. Our group is recognized globally for its forward-thinking approach on tax matters as well as precedent-setting firsts in tax planning for transactional matters including M&A, private equity, capital market, project finance, family office, and real estate as well as for executive compensation, transfer pricing, tax dispute resolution, competent authority, and investigative matters.
