Steven Hadjilogiou specialises in general international tax planning, state and local tax planning, subpart F planning, treaty issues, general and international tax planning, as well as general partnership taxation. He also advises on local country tax, inbound and outbound transactional planning, and corporate and estate tax issues in numerous jurisdictions throughout the world.

He also advises companies on the state and local tax aspects of corporate restructurings, and has extensive experience with unclaimed property.

He also advises clients on dispositions of US real property interests, foreign tax credit and subpart F planning, bankruptcy reorganisations, and income tax treaties, including competent authority matters.

Kristen Proschold represents companies, such as those with significant intellectual property, for example in the software, semi-conductor, e-commerce and retail industries, in all stages of tax controversies, advising companies facing potential tax controversies pre-audit, during the audit and administrative appeals, during alternative dispute resolution proceedings, and in the US Tax Court.

Daniel White advises clients on transfer pricing and other tax litigation matters, where he represents individuals and corporations in all stages of federal tax disputes with the IRS — from IRS audits to administrative appeals and US Tax Court litigation.
