Our Approach

Although intended to be clear, consistent, and logical, the Internal Revenue Code can seem impossibly labyrinthine. Tax laws are used not only for revenue but also as a device for fiscal policy. In practice, maintaining compliance with tax laws can seem less like piecing a puzzle together and more like fitting square pegs in round holes, with noncompliance often taking the place of strategic planning.

Obtaining the maximum tax benefit for clients requires not only solid knowledge, practical experience and technical expertise with the law, but also creativity, when appropriate, and well-honed analytical skills.

We apply this approach in all our practice areas, including Taxation Law, Business Law, Accountant Malpractice, and Trusts and Estates.
