Tax

Schiff Hardin attorneys advise private company clients on the tax aspects of the formation, ownership, financing and operation of their businesses. Working in collaboration with the firm's tax practitioners, we also counsel clients on:

  • The structuring of sophisticated domestic and international business transactions
  • Reorganizations
  • Joint ventures
  • Liquidations
  • Debt restructurings
  • Other financing transactions to achieve optimal income tax results

In addition, we work often with private, family-owned businesses and help them analyze and understand the sometimes significant tax implications relating to the most effective means of structuring their ownership, as well as planning for the transfer of control of the company to future generations.
