State & Local Taxation

Jones Day’s thirty-plus state and local tax attorneys offer first-hand experience across the U.S. to provide a full range of counseling and controversy services, including transactional planning, tax-advantaged business restructuring, audit defense and representation in state/municipal administrative proceedings, appeals all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court, and large scale multi-jurisdictional litigation.

Our counseling practice analyzes the tax aspects of and conducts due diligence for acquisitions, dispositions, spinoffs, bankruptcies, and reorganizations.  We work hand-in-hand with our Business Restructuring & Reorganization and Mergers & Acquisitions practices to address a transaction’s potential state tax implications.

Our controversy practice assists clients who are forced to resort to litigation to protect their rights as taxpayers.  Our services are scalable, allowing us to efficiently assist with single jurisdiction controversy resolution as well as multi-jurisdiction litigation and appeals.  We enhance our substantive depth by leveraging the strategic prowess from our Trial and Issues & Appeals practices.
