OUR EXPERIENCE

Our tax attorneys, based in Sacramento, bring a wealth of expertise to assist clients with complex tax matters. By collaborating closely with local accountants, financial planners, and other specialists within our firm, we provide comprehensive tax planning services that address the specific needs of the Sacramento region’s diverse business community.

Our team comprises highly qualified professionals, including attorneys who have earned both a Juris Doctor (J.D.) and a Master of Laws in Taxation (Tax LLM) or other advanced tax degrees such as an MS in Taxation. We also have attorneys who are Certified Public Accountants (CPAs), enabling them to provide expert guidance to Sacramento businesses and tax preparers. Our team members have held prestigious positions, such as adjunct professorships, and have been recognized as authors, lecturers, and presenters at national tax conferences.

PLANNING

Our Sacramento-based tax attorneys provide meticulous planning services for both individuals and business entities, addressing a wide range of issues, including income taxes, sales and use taxes, employment taxes, and property taxes. We excel in estate and gift taxation, tax-deferred exchanges of real property, entity restructuring, and non-profit entity formation, ensuring that our clients receive comprehensive tax planning advice tailored to their unique circumstances.

STATE AND LOCAL TAX SERVICES

Fennemore’s State and Local Tax Services provide a comprehensive approach to assist clients. Having practiced before state and local tax administrative authorities, our attorneys include a former sales/use tax auditor and a founder for CPA firm state and local tax practice.

With our local office in the Sacramento region, our unique proximity to the state capital allows us to easily connect with state agencies and develop better contacts—plus gives us the ability to frequently appear before state taxing agencies. Our attorneys have been recognized by Spidells California Taxletter for contributing articles on multiple areas of state tax law. In fact, our attorneys have collectively contributed hundreds of articles and topics locally, statewide and nationally on state and local tax issues.

Our services range from basic tax advice regarding home ownership to tax assistance for major business transactions. In Northern California, our tax attorneys are sought to advise on issues particular to the community, including the tax consequences from economic changes, both good and bad. In fact, we are often called upon by CPAs and other professionals to assist their clients with their issues.
