About

Provided by McDermott Will & Emery LLP


Corporate/M&A – Working closely with our corporate lawyers, we handle the tax aspects of numerous transactions. Our work includes large M&A deals, private equity buyouts, spin-offs, corporate restructurings, and IPOs. Our tax lawyers are often called in by major public companies to act as special tax counsel on the largest M&A deals and securities offerings in the market. 



Financial tax – McDermott provides tax advice in respect of complex financial products, including derivatives, asset-backed finance structures, commercial paper programs, securitizations, and tax-advantaged financings.



Renewable energy tax – We have seen continued demand for our services in the specialized area of “tax equity” transactions, which allow for the use of tax incentives to encourage the development of renewable energy.



Tax-exempt organizations – Along with our corporate and banking clients, our New York tax lawyers advise a number of tax-exempt entities on their investment activities and benefits and compensation arrangements. 


Insurance – The New York tax practice has acquired particular experience in the insurance industry, advising on the tax aspects of mergers and acquisitions in the insurance industry, and with respect to the development of complex insurance products. Recently we have worked on the establishment of a number of tax-driven captive insurance entities.
