As the leading tax law firm in Arkansas, we have an excellent reputation and working relationship with the Revenue Division of the Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration. Whether your concerns involve personal or business taxation, you benefit from the fact that lawyers from our firm have helped shape state tax law by working directly with administrative and legislative taxing officials. A good example is our efforts in restructuring the state manufacturing tax exemption on tangible personal property used directly in manufacturing so that it achieves the necessary public policy objectives while supporting the competitiveness of some of the state’s largest business entities. We also have other unique strengths that reflect our knowledge of the state tax code, such as unquestioned leadership in the issuance of the Internal Revenue Board.
At the local level we excel at helping you with tax issues that particularly relate to real estate transactions, such as reducing tax burdens through the use of like-kind exchanges. When necessary, we can challenge local tax assessments on your behalf, particularly if there is a need to challenge a contingency ad valorem property tax assessment. Other state or local tax controversies that we can handle for you include sales and use tax audits and disputes.
Our firm has an authoritative voice that carries weight with the legislature and administrative taxing authorities. We can effectively handle appeals of property taxes, sales and use, and income tax matters from planning to the audit stage through the Arkansas Supreme Court. Our attorneys also have experience finding and securing state economic incentives for companies looking to move to Arkansas.
