Overview

Amidst the ever-increasing complexity of federal, state, and local tax laws, our dedicated team of attorneys provide solutions that are technically sound, yet practical from a business perspective.

Bricker Graydon tax attorneys are experienced in navigating the federal, state, and local tax laws at all stages ranging from tax planning, transaction counsel, audit defense, and appeals. Our attorneys approach these various roles from a perspective that is rooted in industry experience across wide sectors of the economy, including manufacturing, retail, energy, healthcare, private equity, real estate, construction, transportation, and beyond.
