About the Practice Group
Latham tax lawyers create innovative structures and solve complex tax issues for a full spectrum of clients.
Our tax lawyers advise multinational corporations, financial institutions, private equity funds, domestic corporations, joint ventures, emerging companies, special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs), and tax-exempt organizations.
The firm has a long and rich history with the US Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and US Department of the Treasury, dating back to founding partner Dana Latham's tenure as Commissioner of the IRS under President Eisenhower. Today, more than 100 tax lawyers around the globe collaborate across offices and disciplines to address tax issues that arise in the context of transactions, controversies, and general business operations. While tax questions are often complex, we develop practical, commercial answers for clients across a range of industries.
About the Role
Latham's Bay Area offices welcome applications from junior and mid-level tax associates to join a growing group with two tax partners who work with teams both inside and outside the Bay Area. The candidate should have a minimum of 1 year of law-firm experience dedicated to tax-related work on transactions, including significant experience with M&A transactions. Tax associates can choose to work out of either our San Francisco office or our Silicon Valley office. Tax associates in our Bay Area offices work on a broad range of transactions with a collegial group that values training, mentoring, and collaboration.
