At Komisar Brady, we focus on providing tax services that fit the needs of each business and individual client. We maintain a philosophy of providing proactive tax services, utilizing tax saving opportunities and planning strategies within the established laws.
Recent federal and state tax legislation focused on many different business, individual and social incentives, with the overarching foundation of spending and economic growth. While the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 was the largest single tax legislation in history, there have been many other federal and state bills that have created a number of tax planning opportunities for virtually all businesses and individuals.
More than any other practice area, our tax department has to maintain constant awareness of legislative changes and planning opportunities, including far more than just the federal tax incentives that get the most public attention. Whether it is business or individual, estate or income tax, federal or state, sales or use tax, we have the breadth of knowledge and experience to know the tax law and the innovation to help you navigate how it affects you, your business, and estate plan.
Federal Tax Planning
The foundation of our tax practice is on tax compliance with prudent use of tax planning opportunities. There are numerous federal tax incentives that impact virtually all businesses and individuals and our tax department works tirelessly to stay current on tax legislation and proactively develop innovative ideas and specialized strategies for each client. We work closely with our clients to project their federal taxes and utilize specific planning strategies to avoid less favorable tax consequences.
Wisconsin Income Tax Planning
At Komisar Brady, we focus on providing tax planning to address Wisconsin tax issues. Wisconsin tax laws do not necessarily follow the federal tax laws and we therefore identify the differences as a completely separate planning strategy. We balance differences in federal and Wisconsin income tax law to reach the best solution for each situation.
Multi-state Tax Issues
While we have extensive experience in Wisconsin tax law, we have a team of individuals who focus on the complicated issues of multi-state businesses. We have client filings in over 35 states and work closely with each multi-state business client to be compliant with each state’s filing requirements and utilize any tax incentives specific to those states.
Tax Credit/Incentives
Our highly-trained tax department focuses on tax credits and incentives available to our business and individual clients to optimize each situation. Tax credits and incentives are created by the government to encourage business and individuals to spend money in a particular area and we proactively tax advantage of any tax credits and incentives available to our clients.
Sales and Use Tax Consulting
The State of Wisconsin and many other states have run into reduced budgets and increasing pressure to offer tax incentives. As a result, many states have turned up efforts on sales tax auditing and compliance. We have extensive experience on sales and use tax compliance and have assisted in numerous audits in recent years. Government audits add stress and financial uncertainty to every business, and our role is to know sales tax law well enough to minimize that stress and sales tax exposure for our business clients.
Our experience with sales tax audit assistance has given us exceptional background to help all businesses be compliant with state sales tax laws and minimize exposure in the future.
Government Audit/Problem Resolution
At Komisar Brady, we have an experienced team that represents clients during government audits and utilizes problem resolution options when necessary. During a government audit we become your spokesperson and protect your rights while working toward a favorable resolution to the audit.
In addition to representing clients under audit we have been successful utilizing problem resolution options available to bring closure to tax disputes. This includes federal and state voluntary disclosure arrangements and offers in compromise.
Estate and Gift Taxes
At Komisar Brady, we focus on providing estate and gift tax planning and compliance for our individual clients. The estate and gift tax laws are specific and require innovative ideas and specialized strategies. We have tax experts with specialized training and experience in the estate and gift tax area. Estate tax planning is more than a tax issue. We work with our clients to assist them in planning for the future, facilitating the distribution of wealth and closing an estate.
