The Tax Group represents clients in a wide variety of taxable and tax-free transactions, including mergers, stock and asset acquisitions, joint ventures and spin-offs. Our representation includes advising on the structure of the transaction, negotiating the structure of the transaction and the transaction documents, conducting tax due diligence and opining upon the tax consequences of the transaction.
The Tax Group is generally involved at the early stages of the negotiation to ensure that the preferred structure or alternative structures of the transaction are reflected in, or at least considered under, preliminary contractual understandings of the parties involved.
