About

Provided by Chamberlain Hrdlicka

Tax is a core strength of Chamberlain Hrdlicka's diversified commercial law practice, with more than third of its lawyers either practicing primarily or having a strong background in tax law.

Many of the firm's tax attorneys have worked with the IRS or Department of Justice Tax Division, are board certified in tax law, hold advanced degrees in tax law, are certified public accountants, have clerked at the U.S. Tax Court, or have worked as in-house tax counsel for large multi-national corporations.  They are frequent speakers at continuing education programs throughout the country and internationally, and a number of them have taught tax courses at leading law schools.

Chamberlain Hrdlicka's tax attorneys in Texas advise and represent clients - public companies, privately-held businesses, partnerships and joint ventures, individuals, trusts, estates, and tax-exempt organizations - with respect to all aspects and phases of state, local and international tax planning and tax controversy matters. They routinely guide transactions through the most complex and difficult tax rules. Many of the tax attorneys devote all or substantial portion of their practice to representing taxpayers in tax controversy matters before the IRS and state taxing authorities, and in the federal and state courts. This gives them first-hand experience with how governmental agencies and the courts interpret and enforce the tax laws, and we apply this unique knowledge to the benefit of all our clients.
