(Leading partners)The team at DLA Piper LLP (US) is formed of tax advisors and economists who lend their expertise to assist a broad client roster consisting of key players in industries such as media, technology, and finance. The team advises on cross-border integrations, mergers, and acquisitions for start-ups and multinationals alike, and facilitates the international aspects of such restructurings including transfer pricing issues and foreign tax credits, providing comprehensive support across both transactions and planning-based tax matters. The practice is jointly led by Seattle-based tax practice head Alison Maxwell, who handles international integrations and acquisition transactions, and international tax and transfer pricing sub-practice lead Maruti Narayan in New York, who led the team on the Warner Brothers Discovery $43bn restructuring following AT&T’s spinoff of WarnerMedia and Warner Brothers Discovery. Tuan Ngo is well-regarded for his comprehensive advisory service encompassing corporate international tax and operational structuring, as well as tax treaty issues.
