Our Tax group charts the course for clients on tax matters concerning M&A and private equity transactions for high-profile corporations, investment funds and individuals.
M&A―whether the transaction is a taxable asset or equity sale, a tax-free reorganization or a tax-efficient spin-off or split-up, our attorneys’ experience comes from years of working on the most complicated, cutting-edge transactions.
Private equity―our tax attorneys provide value-added advice and counseling for our private equity clients. Highly skilled tax attorneys in the US, UK and Europe deliver the comprehensive advice needed by sophisticated fund clients, including those with significant non-US investors involved in cross-border investments.
Financial restructuring―our bandwidth in financial restructuring-related tax matters is second to none. We’ve represented court appointed creditors’ committees in America’s most significant bankruptcy proceedings, including Lehman Brothers, Enron, Kodak and REFCO, and represented the debtor in Long Term Capital Management’s liquidation. We have also represented numerous ad hoc groups of controlling creditors in various in-court and out-of-court restructurings, and have had a leading role in a large number of MLP restructurings.
Our attorneys are adept at creative solutions to complex issues such as tax sharing arrangements in bankruptcy and tax issues specific to financially troubled banks and other financial institutions.
