TAX PLANNING

At Radin Glass, we provide tax planning advice and guidance to our clients on a wide range of multidisciplinary business activities -- from choice of entity on new business formation, to assistance with structuring sales of assets or entire businesses to maximize tax proceeds to sellers.

We believe there are planning opportunities available for individuals in the following areas:

• Income tax, especially when there are unusual income events during a tax year

• Planning for corporate executives’ exercises and dispositions of both statutory (ISO) and
   non-statutory stock options to minimize impact of Alternative Minimum Tax

• Charitable giving in order to maximize tax benefits from contemplated donations

• Estate and gift taxes to accomplish long and short-term wealth transfer objectives.

State-of-the-art software allows us to run projections for multiple scenarios, including those that may involve several tax years, in order to present to our clients comprehensive results and alternatives.  We work closely with our clients’ existing team of attorneys, wealth advisors and other professionals to assist in reaching the desired result.

Business planning can include:

• Advantages and potential savings from choice of entity, including change in status of
   existing operations and elections available for foreign operations

• State and local tax structures to minimize overall tax burden

• Structure and allocations on business acquisitions and sales to maximize tax benefits
FORENSIC ACCOUNTING SERVICES

Radin Glass has provided forensic accounting services and related litigation support to counsel in a number of areas, including:

• Evaluation of appropriateness of a claim of malpractice against accountants and lawyers

• Defense of a malpractice claim against an accountant, including testifying before a jury in
   Federal court

• Assistance to both buyers and sellers of businesses relating to claims arising out of earn-out
   provisions of business acquisition agreements, including testimony at arbitrations

• Computations of damages

• Interpretation of accounting provisions of contracts

Very often, we are retained as consultants or expert witnesses, and we bring to all litigation support the willingness of our partners to devote appropriate time to understanding the issues and claims under review.   We evaluate the most efficient method of addressing the claim.  
REPRESENTATION

Radin Glass client services do not end once a tax return is prepared and filed.  The Internal Revenue Service and all states routinely review returns filed and occasionally raise questions concerning items reflected on a return.  We respond promptly to such inquiries, in many cases providing sufficient information and documentation to allow the returns to be accepted as filed.  However, we are well prepared to represent our clients before any taxing authority in a full audit, including challenging findings up to Federal and State appeals levels.  We have successfully handled income tax audits and appeals for individuals and corporations, as well as State sales tax audits and audits relating to payroll matters.
TAX COMPLIANCE

As income tax laws and regulations have become more complex, increasing the compliance burden, Radin Glass has limited clients ’ exposure to tax liability by being fully proficient in the capabilities of today ’s sophisticated tax preparation software.  This allows us to prepare business tax returns for any state or city in the country, consolidated corporate returns and partnership returns with large numbers of partners and complex allocations, as well as individual income tax returns for all states.  

And because we are registered as an eFile provider with the Internal Revenue Service and with most states, we can easily service large businesses that are required to eFile, while offering the benefits this service to smaller clients and individuals.

We can also prepare:

• Fiduciary income tax returns for Estates and Trusts

• Annual filings for public and private not-for-profit organizations

• Gift and Estate tax returns

• Required information returns for foreign-owned US businesses and foreign subsidiaries of
   domestic businesses
