Tax

The National Law Review has articles from experts, detailing legal analysis of tax issues. We cover both personal tax-law implications, as well as tax legislation which impacts public and private businesses.  In addition to covering these topics, The National Law Review also covers topics from estate planning to gift-deductions, tax-exempt bonds, and business succession planning. Additionally, NLR covers Proxy disclosures, new business organizations, transfer taxes, and other areas of tax law which are governed by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).

The recently passed Tax Cuts and Jobs Act legislation has greatly impacted tax-law in the United States for the 2018 tax-filing year. In addition to covering issues like cross-border transactions, how individual tax rates will be affected, international implications, tax-treaty compliance, and foreign tax credit planning, The National Law Review also uploads various cases relating to the Internal Revenue Code (IRC).

Visitors to NLR can find articles on tax reform, tax incentives, like-kind exchanges, implications of mergers and acquisitions in the business-realm, and changes to the IRC, such as the personal-performance elimination under IRC 162(m).  Both the private and public (small and large corporation) sector has greatly shifted after the HR-1 legislation was passed at the end of 2017.

Tax analysis for best practices on Estate Planning and Wealth transfer strategies are available on the site, including information on how to take advantage of estate planning strategies available under the TCJA.  Information related to trusts and State and Local Tax, or SALT, is also covered.  Additionally, readers can find articles on tax-related elements of mergers, sales and acquisitions, joint ventures, cross-border transactions, public-private partnerships, reorganizations and real estate transactions.
