CAPLIN & DRYSDALE

Description

When we started this firm half a century ago, our commitment was to provide comprehensive tax legal services of the highest quality. In the beginning, we recruited heavily from the top staff at IRS, Treasury, and Justice Department, amassing an excellent reserve of technical skill as well as considerable knowledge on how tax law is made and administered. As the firm grew, we continued to hire former government lawyers and added breadth to our cadre by hiring and training young lawyers who had served in judicial clerkships or had otherwise demonstrated exceptional promise.

For half a century, Caplin & Drysdale has been a leading provider of a full range of legal services to companies, nonprofit organizations, professional service providers, and high-net-worth individuals throughout the United States and around the world. With offices in Washington, D.C., and New York City, the firm offers counseling on matters relating to tax, tax controversy, bankruptcy, creditors' rights, political activity, exempt organizations, complex litigation, employee benefits, private client services, corporate law, and white collar defense.

Caplin & Drysdale understands the Competent Authority process, knows the players, and uses the process on a regular basis to benefit our clients. Our attorneys have recent experience working with the Competent Authorities of Belgium, Canada, Germany, Japan, Mexico, the United Kingdom and, of course, the United States, to secure treaty benefits and to minimize double taxation for our clients.

In an era when law firms are growing rapidly and multinational accounting firms are pursuing the practice of tax law, Caplin & Drysdale chooses to remain small. For half a century, we have focused on providing unparalleled service to our clients in a culture that enables our lawyers to have full and enriched lives outside the firm.

Customized Tax Advice. Caplin & Drysdale is well-equipped to provide sophisticated tax counsel to nonresident athletes and entertainers. The information here is general in nature and is not meant to provide definitive tax advice. Since each athlete's situation is unique, sound tax advice will always be tailored to the client's factual circumstances and the applicable tax laws (tax treaties often differ among countries).
