Taxation

Ongoing changes in this area make it difficult, if not impossible, for most businesses and individuals to plan effectively and to remain in compliance. The tax experts at Kerr, Russell and Weber keep abreast of frequently changing tax legislation, governmental regulations, and judicial and administrative rulings. This requires continuous education and ongoing professional experience to give our clients a deserved edge. Our tax attorneys participate regularly in continuing legal education and Master of Law programs. In addition, our diverse group of clients – from service to capital oriented businesses – provides a wide perspective from which to anticipate and evaluate problems. 

Many of our tax attorneys are also Certified Public Accountants. Our tax professionals are involved in tax law on many levels, from minimizing corporate taxes and penalties through negotiation or litigation, to reducing estate taxes significantly through careful estate planning, to personal tax planning.  We make it our business to stay on top of tax reform, helping our clients take advantage of new opportunities that may affect their bottom line.
