State and Local Tax Controversies

Jones Day is one of the few law firms with experienced attorneys located in each region of the United States who practice in the state and local tax area.

Our attorneys regularly attend state and local administrative conferences. Our close professional relationships at state revenue departments around the U.S. allow us to provide effective representation at the administrative level. And because most controversies are won or lost there, "knowing the players" and understanding the "unwritten policy" add significantly to our ability to shepherd a matter through various revenue departments. Similarly, we have effectively dealt with dozens of large municipal tax assessments, in which only minimal due process occurs. Our State and Local Tax Team has successfully resolved many hotly contested audits and prevailed in numerous administrative hearings and appeals, both at the state and local level.
