Biography

Bill’s practice is focused on tax planning for multi-national and multi-state personal, active business, and investment activities, with a particular emphasis on tax structuring and choice of business entity for US and non-US business owners and investors. He has represented a wide variety of private and public businesses including family owned, start-ups and multi-million dollar enterprises on purely domestic as well as inbound and outbound business transactions, cross-border investments (whether made directly or through investment funds or joint ventures), and qualification for US tax treaty benefits. In particular, Bill has considerable experience advising non-US persons on the US income and estate tax consequences and tax planning associated with the ownership of US real estate (whether residential or commercial, developmental, operational, or personal use). Bill is also admitted to practice before the United States Tax Court and assists clients with responding to inquiries from US federal and state tax authorities.
