With a Masters of Law in taxation, Doug devotes a significant part of his practice to interacting with the IRS on audits.
-
Douglas Eisenberg, Chair of the Schenck Price's Tax Planning Practice Group, represents many closely held entities in a wide variety of areas with a focus on the tax aspects of the transaction. For example, the structure of the sale of a closely held business is influenced by the tax implications which vary depending upon numerous factors. In addition to income tax considerations, estate planning (federal and state tax) may come into play.
Doug also spends a great deal of his practice interacting with the Internal Revenue Service on audits, which in some cases end up in the United States Tax Court. Finally, in addition to estate planning and administration, Doug represents tax-exempt organizations in all aspects of both tax and otherwise.
