Partnership Tax

The Ratliff FirmPartnership Tax:
The structures you choose for conducting your business and financing your operations can dramatically affect your tax obligations. Fortunately, recent changes to the tax laws have made business entity choices seamless. You can operate as a limited liability company or subchapter S corporation and enjoy the tax benefits generally associated with partnerships and sole proprietorships. You can use the "check-the-box" election to gain cross-border tax advantages without otherwise affecting the basic economics of a transaction. You can choose a financing arrangement that involves issuing preferred stock or debt or engaging in leveraged lease transactions.
The Ratliff Firm attorneys have expertise as well as significant practical experience utilizing the business entity and financing provisions of the tax laws to fashion tax efficient strategies.
