Our Approach

Estate & Trust Litigation
There are few attorneys who take the time to become true estate and trust litigators.  It takes years of experience with a wide variety of cases, education regarding esoteric legal concepts and dedication.  Our estate and trust litigation group does not trifle with other types of litigation – this is all that we do.

Disputes that arise from the death or incompetency of a family member require attorneys to offer practical, strategic advice.  We help our clients avoid litigation whenever possible and zealously advocate for favorable settlements.  When litigation is inevitable, we draw on a deep bench of trial experience to strive for favorable outcomes, even in the most contentious disputes.  Our experience in fiduciary litigation and risk management allows us to protect and advocate for our individual and corporate fiduciary clients as they navigate some of the most complex family disputes.  

Tax Controversies & Litigation
Our tax controversy team represents taxpayers in disputes before the IRS and state and local tax authorities. With former IRS attorneys and professionals holding CPAs, MBAs, and LLMs in Taxation, we handle matters ranging from estate and gift tax to income, employment, and all other types of taxes—along with related penalties and interest. We have successfully represented thousands of taxpayers around the world that cut across numerous taxing jurisdictions. Our team litigates tax matters nationwide in U.S. Tax Court, District Courts, the Court of Federal Claims, and Courts of Appeal.
