We help our clients address tax risks in order to optimize their global structures, ensure liquidity through intercompany lending, and addressing risks of challenge by local tax authorities driven by transfer pricing considerations.

State and Local M&A Tax Advice
We advise clients on state and local tax nexus within the context of buy-side and sell-side transactions.
For U.S.-inbound clients, we can support you in your due diligence process to identify an exposures from pre-acquisition state and local non-compliance. We help sellers to conduct a thorough evaluation of reasonable post-closing indemnities.
Tax Compliance & Reporting
We prepare and file on behalf of our clients annual U.S. corporate and partnership tax returns, investor reports for partnrs (i.e. Schedules K1) and other international tax filings.
Tax Treaty Qualification & Benefits
Holding structures have come under increased scrutiny from tax authorities in recent years (including under the EU`s recent draft Anti-Tax Avoidance Directive 3). We advise upon treaty qualification for our international clients and manage unnecessary tax leakage taking into account evolving market practices.
We also help our clients pursue U.S. tax refund claims for over-withholding on cross-border investments.
Global Mobility & Executive Compensation
Companies serving customers in multiple jurisdictions can face tax risk in foreign jurisdictions (e.g., income tax and social security) where employees are sent abroad to do business.
We help clients to approach foreign markets in a manner to manage the risk of creating a taxable presence in a foreign country (while taking into account regulatory and immigration considerations).
We also advise companies on employee stock option plans and arrangements germane to the compensation of executives.
Transfer Pricing
Pricing can affect the division of revenues and profits in the context of intra-group transactions. We advise corporate groups concerning intercompany service arrangements, IP transfers and licensing transactions, and cross-border financing.
