Tax Attorneys at Zuber & Taillieu

Great tax counsel requires both a deep knowledge of tax law and an exceptional creativity in its application. The tax lawyers at Zuber & Taillieu combine in-depth know-how and a unique ability to innovate to help clients navigate the tax issues underlying our clients’ most ambitious and difficult undertakings. Our tax attorneys craft practical solutions for even the most complicated tax issues, and our adherence to the highest standards of service has earned us the trust of leading multinational companies.

Tightly integrated with our other practice groups, our tax department frequently helps clients devise and close complex transactions in a tax-efficient manner. We routinely advise clients on the tax aspects of mergers, acquisitions, spin-offs, joint ventures, financings, corporate reorganizations and restructurings, real estate transactions, intellectual property assignments and licensing, and other business transactions. These transactions frequently involve large multi-national businesses and raise complex cross-border tax issues. As tax considerations often determine the viability and form of contemplated transactions, our tax advice often begins at inception with entity selection and structuring, and continues through our clients’ operations and potential exit strategies.  Our tax lawyers are valued for their creativity, and their ability to craft “out-of-the-box” solutions to make deals happen.

Zuber & Taillieu’s tax clients also consist of high net worth families and individuals who rely on our expertise and experience to help them manage and transfer their wealth. As we work with our clients to formulate appropriate gifting plans to transfer holdings to succeeding generations, we become familiar with our clients’ businesses and investments and strive to identify opportunities to reduce both estate and income taxes as well as potential probate costs. This often requires intimate knowledge of tax law from a global perspective, as cross-border wealth transfers become increasingly relevant in our globalized economy.

Litigation can also present its own unique tax issues.  Zuber & Taillieu’s tax attorneys have extensive experience structuring tax aspects of civil judgments and settlements as well as resolving tax disputes. We regularly represent clients before administrative agencies and in the courtroom. Our tax attorneys and seasoned litigators work closely together to provide broad expertise to our clients in tax litigation matters.
