As business becomes increasingly global, from the multinational enterprise to the sole proprietor, it is more likely than ever that your business will need to plan its tax strategy on an international basis. Due to the complex interplay between and among U.S. tax rules, non-U.S. tax rules and double-taxation treaties, properly integrated and cohesive tax planning is essential when business spans international borders. Sullivan & Worcester’s international tax attorneys have significant experience in handling this complex interplay and developing practical strategies for businesses engaging in cross-border transactions.
Sullivan & Worcester has one of the largest international tax practices in the Northeast. The legal practice of many of our 35 tax lawyers includes a significant international tax planning component, and four of our lawyers focus primarily in international taxation.
Our tax specialists have extensive experience in strategic tax planning and implementation for a wide range of international business activities and taxes, including:
- Structuring tax-efficient international mergers, acquisitions, dispositions and reorganizations
- Designing cross-border financing strategies, capital structures, repatriation strategies and planning for foreign tax credit utilization
- Migrating intellectual property to tax-favored jurisdictions
- Maximizing opportunities for deferral of U.S. tax on foreign earnings using favorable non-U.S. holding company regimes
- Reducing worldwide effective foreign tax rates
- Documenting and defending intercompany transfer-pricing matters
- Assisting with cross-border real estate investments
- Advising sovereign wealth funds, foreign governmental pension plans and other foreign governments as to their U.S. investments, including real estate investments
