Tax Controversy & Litigation Associate

I’m currently instructed on an exceptional opportunity for a mid-level associate to join a premier New York-based practice focused on U.S. and international tax matters, with a strong emphasis on civil and criminal tax litigation. This standout team represents clients at all stages of the tax controversy lifecycle – from audit through litigation – and routinely advises on high-stakes, complex, and novel issues. Key exposure areas include TEFRA & BBA partnership audit procedures; International tax & FBAR compliance; Reportable transactions & transfer pricing; Debt vs. equity classifications; Foreign tax credits & excise tax on reinsurers. The environment is collaborative, sophisticated, and deeply technical – ideal for someone who loves diving into the nuance of tax law.
