Law Firm Tax Hub
Law firm leaders face a unique set of circumstances in running their business, creating unique challenges when it comes to tax planning and compliance. Most law firms are set up as pass-through entities, requiring additional considerations when tax planning as the tax bill is paid by the firm’s owners. From determining the employment classification of ‘of counsel’ attorneys, dealing with remote work issues for both lawyers and support staff, to navigating apportionment rules for income derived from clients across states and more, leaders must understand law firm tax strategies and regulations.
Check out our Law Firm Tax Hub below with specialized content relating to the four major tax issues in the industry for information to help you and your firm. Ready to speak to a member of our Law Firm Services Team now? Contact us here.
