Tax-exempt status is a valuable asset to be properly managed and protected.  Whether your organization is seeking tax-exempt status or is having difficulty with other tax issues, Mosher & Wagenmaker has a wealth of expertise to handle federal and state tax matters.  Our attorneys have obtained IRS approval in thousands of applications for recognition of tax-exempt status over the last thirty years.  We also regularly negotiate with the IRS to resolve disputes such as reporting violations, income tax issues, and changes in organizational structure. 

Our firm advises many nonprofits about their revenue-generating activities, providing legal evaluation of complex tax issues and helping our clients to properly structure such activities to reduce or eliminate taxable unrelated business income.  In addition, we advise clients regarding their Form 990 reporting obligations, including director and officer information, finances, excess benefit issues, unrelated business income, and relationships with other organizations.  Our attorneys also help clients obtain reduction or elimination of tax penalties for late filed returns and payments.
