State and Local Tax Services

State and Local Tax Services

Discover SALT Solutions for Your Business

State and Local tax (SALT) laws can sometimes be complex and confusing.  To make things more difficult, they are always changing, as evidenced by the Supreme Court’s landmark decision in South Dakota v. Wayfair.  They pose specific challenges to businesses and impact all elements of business operations, including C and S corporations, partnerships and sole proprietors.

Brown Edwards’ State and Local Tax (SALT) Group assists businesses of all sizes with planning and compliance in connection with State and Local tax requirements. We have a full team of dedicated SALT experts ready to provide you with planning and solutions to your issues and questions whether you are conducting business in one, several or all 50 states.
