The firm's Tax & Estates practice is divided into six groups focusing on the following areas:

• Transactional Tax (Federal & International)
• Estate Planning & Administration
• State & Local Tax
• Executive Compensation & Employee Benefits
• Tax & Fiduciary Litigation
• Tax Credit Programs
  

In addition to concentrating in one or more of these areas, attorneys in the Tax & Estates practice participate in intersectional practice area groups established to counsel clients with respect to the tax law implications in matters involving mergers and acquisitions, bankruptcy and reorganization, health and life insurance law, international business law, estate planning, charitable giving, non-profit organizations law, and trust and estate administration.

Many of our attorneys are Board Certified Tax Specialists or Estate Planning and Administration Specialists in Louisiana.
