Williams & Connolly LLP

/Home/Tax Attorney: Washington DC

Williams & Connolly LLP is not organized into formal departments or practice groups. Litigation is the focus of the firm's attorneys. Advocacy is their skill. And good advocacy can be brought to bear in any kind of case. That is the firm's conviction, and that is one of the secrets of the firm's success.

Of course, individual lawyers develop knowledge and experience in particular areas of practice, and the firm draws on that knowledge and experience as it is needed.

Williams & Connolly LLP represents both U.S. and foreign clients in domestic and international tax matters. Our clients include both corporations and individuals, and our experience includes both civil and criminal tax controversy matters.

We guide our clients through the many facets of the tax laws, including advice on structuring tax advantaged corporate reorganizations, acquisitions, restructurings, debt financings, sales exchanges and other transactions involving "C" and "S" corporations, partnerships, joint ventures, and LLCs.

The firm also is experienced in representing tax-exempt organizations such as section 501(c)(3) entities and in providing advice regarding charitable giving, private foundations, public charities, and joint ventures and other financial relationships between non-profit and for-profit organizations. We serve as outside general counsel to a number of prominent tax-exempt organizations.

We represent individuals in tax matters, including income tax, compensation, and estate and gift tax issues. In our estate and gift tax planning practice, we advise individuals, their family members, and family-owned businesses regarding personal and tax aspects of asset transfers, between and among them, during life and at death.

In addition to tax planning, the firm has an active tax controversy practice, both civil and criminal. We represent corporations and individuals in tax examinations before the Internal Revenue Service and in tax litigation in the federal courts. The firm also has experience in all phases of criminal tax matters, from criminal investigations to high profile criminal tax litigation.
